Veterans - As enacted, makes changes to the law relevant to applications for veterans treatment court program grant funds. - Amends TCA Title 4; Title 8; Title 16; Title 39 and Title 40.
This bill requires the commissioner of mental health and substance abuse services to submit an annual report on veterans treatment court program grant funds. The report, due by February 1 each year, must be sent to specific legislative committees and include details such as the amount of new grants, the names of receiving counties, and the total value of outstanding grants. These changes affect the state's oversight of funding for veterans treatment courts by ensuring regular updates on how grant money is distributed and utilized. The law amends several sections of the Tennessee Code to establish this reporting requirement.
