HB 936 – SB 1012
SUMMARY OF BILL: Changes the definition of “related” as it relates to child care
agencies, to include whole or half-blood nieces and nephews of the primary caregiver.
FISCAL IMPACT:
NOT SIGNIFICANT
Assumptions:
• Tennessee Code Annotated § 71-3-501(12) currently defines “related” as the children, step-
children, grandchildren, step-grandchildren, siblings of the whole or half-blood, step-
siblings, nieces or nephews or foster children of the primary caregiver.
• The proposed legislation will not result in any significant change in the number of licensed
child-care agencies, and can be managed within existing Department of Human Services
resources and personnel and without any significant fiscal impact.
CERTIFICATION:
The information contained herein is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.
