Senate Bill 1550 and House Bill 1607 propose amendments to the Tennessee Code Annotated concerning the Tennessee Commission on Aging and Disability. Specifically, the bill deletes subdivision (56) from Section 4-29-247(a) and adds a new subdivision to Section 4-29-251(a) that formally recognizes the Tennessee Commission on Aging and Disability, as established by Section 52-8-102.

The bill aims to streamline the legal framework surrounding the commission by removing outdated provisions and ensuring that the commission is explicitly mentioned in the relevant statutes. The changes are intended to enhance the clarity and effectiveness of the laws governing aging and disability services in Tennessee. The act will take effect upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of public welfare in its implementation.
