AN ACT to amend Chapter 384 of the Public Acts of 2019, relative to the "Tennessee Commission for the United States Semiquincentennial Commission Act."

Impact

The amendment's impact is relatively procedural, providing commission members with the ability to delegate their duties. By doing so, it aims to facilitate continuity in the commission's functions, potentially leading to more efficient operations. This change is consistent with modern practices in various committees and commissions where flexibility and delegation are necessary for effective governance.

Summary

House Bill 2111 aims to amend Chapter 384 of the Public Acts of 2019, primarily affecting the Tennessee Commission for the United States Semiquincentennial Commission. The amendment introduces a provision allowing members of the commission to designate another individual to fulfill their responsibilities and duties. This change is intended to enhance operational flexibility within the commission, ensuring that its responsibilities can still be met even if a designated member cannot personally attend to them.

Contention

While the amendment appears straightforward, notable points of contention may arise regarding how the delegation of responsibilities is managed. Questions may be raised about the criteria for selecting a designated representative and the implications this might have on accountability within the commission. Critics could argue that such provisions could dilute responsibility, while proponents may see it as a necessary adaptation to modern governance needs.
