Prisons and Reformatory Institutions - As introduced, specifies that the reimbursement of travel expenses incurred by members of the inmate disciplinary oversight board must be administered in accordance with the comprehensive travel regulations promulgated by the department of finance and administration and approved by the attorney general and reporter. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 41.
SB 22 requires that travel expenses for members of Tennessee's inmate disciplinary oversight board be reimbursed according to the state's standard travel regulations. These regulations, established by the Department of Finance and Administration and approved by the Attorney General and Reporter, must now govern all board-related travel costs. The bill directly affects board members and employees who travel for oversight duties by standardizing reimbursement procedures. This change ensures consistency with how other state employees handle travel expenses, without altering substantive oversight policies.
