The resolution, introduced by Senator Reese, urges the Secretary of State to conduct a study on the feasibility of establishing a central electronic repository on the Secretary of State's website for permitting and licensing information. This initiative aims to assist entrepreneurs, particularly those from rural areas, minorities, females, and veterans, who often face challenges in navigating the complex requirements for starting a business. By centralizing this information, the resolution seeks to streamline the business development process, making it easier for individuals to identify and apply for the necessary permits and licenses.

Furthermore, the resolution emphasizes the importance of collaboration among state entities that issue licenses and permits. It requests that these entities provide the Secretary of State with relevant links and information to facilitate the creation of the centralized portal. This effort aligns with the legislative goals outlined in the Louisiana Small Business Protection Act, aiming to foster a more vibrant small business sector in the state by reducing the burdens associated with regulatory compliance.
