Montana SB268 revises laws related to the Dependency and Neglect Court System Task Force, extending its operations and revising its duties. The task force will study dependency and neglect court proceedings to determine whether a separate court system or enhancements to the existing system would best serve Montana.

The task force may create subcommittees and working groups to study specific topics.
