HB 2097 Tennessee House · 113th Regular Session (2023-2024)

Boards and Commissions - As enacted, requires state regulatory boards within the department of commerce and insurance and state health related boards within the department of health to issue advisory private letter rulings, upon request. - Amends TCA Title 62 and Title 63.

This bill requires specific state regulatory boards in Tennessee to issue private advisory rulings when individuals request guidance on matters within their professional jurisdiction. It applies to boards under the Department of Commerce and Insurance as well as health-related boards within the Department of Health, ensuring that licensed or certified professionals can seek official opinions on their specific situations. The law clarifies that these rulings are personal to the requester and do not set precedents for others, while also allowing boards to resolve disputes through existing legal procedures. Additionally, the bill includes several technical amendments to the state code that remove outdated provisions related to board composition and authority.
