The bill amends R.S. 11:143(C)(2) concerning transfers between public retirement systems in Louisiana. It specifies that when transferring credit, the receiving system must receive an amount that includes all employee contributions and employer contributions. Notably, if the employer contribution is not a fixed percentage of the employee's earnings, the employer contribution must be equal to the employee contribution, along with interest calculated at the board-approved actuarial valuation rate, compounded annually.

Additionally, the bill introduces a new definition for "employer contributions" for systems covered by R.S. 11:102 or 103, clarifying that these contributions refer to the actuarially required employer contributions as determined by the relevant statutes. The bill is set to take effect on June 30, 2024, unless vetoed by the governor and subsequently approved by the legislature, in which case it will take effect on the later of the two dates.
