Bill Summary
AN ACT To enact R.S. 49:191(3)(b) and to repeal R.S. 49:191(1)(g), relative to the Department of Education, including provisions to provide for the re-creation of the Department of Education and the statutory entities made a part of the department by law; to provide for the effective termination date for all statutory authority for the existence of such statutory entities; to provide for an effective date; and to provide for related matters.
AI Summary
This bill re-creates the Department of Education and any statutory entities that are legally part of it, effective June 30, 2026, with their legislative authority continuing under specific state statutes. However, the bill also establishes a termination date of July 1, 2031, for all legislative authority for the existence of these entities, meaning they would cease to exist by that date unless re-created earlier. This action supersedes any conflicting provisions in existing law and specifically enacts a provision within R.S. 49:191(3)(b) to list the Department of Education and its associated entities for termination on July 1, 2030, with the overall cessation of authority occurring the following year, while also repealing a different section of R.S. 49:191.
