HB 1091 shortens the timeframe for Tennessee's Department of Children's Services to review temporary childcare licenses. It reduces the deadline from 90 days to 80 days after a temporary license is issued, requiring the department to determine if providers comply with regulations before granting permanent licenses. This directly affects childcare providers operating under temporary licenses who need to transition to permanent status. The bill amends multiple sections of Tennessee law related to childcare licensing procedures.
