Bill > HB608

This bill amends existing Louisiana law to establish specific confidentiality rules for documents related to intercollegiate athletics revenue sharing programs at postsecondary education institutions. While the total amount of revenue spent on these programs must be publicly disclosed, individual athlete compensation amounts, whether a specific dollar figure or a percentage, and funds allocated to particular sports or athletic programs will be considered confidential and exempt from public records requests. Additionally, any documents involved in negotiating or executing agreements with individual athletes under these revenue sharing programs will also be kept confidential. The bill clarifies that these confidentiality provisions apply to existing and future records.
