Tennessee Governmental Accountability Act

This act establishes a framework for accountability in government finance, organized around the budget process. It sets out the objectives that framework is meant to advance and requires the preparation of designated budget products — the documents and reports through which spending plans and fiscal information are assembled and disclosed. Because it operates through required budget documentation rather than substantive limits on spending, its effect is largely procedural, shaping what fiscal information government must produce and in what form.
