RÉSUMÉ DIGEST
ACT 720 (HB 738) 2024 Regular Session Bourriaque
Prior law (Sunset) provided that the Dept. of Transportation and Development and all the
statutory entities made a part of that department by law must begin to terminate their
operations on July 1, 2024, and that all legislative authority for such entities would cease as
of July 1, 2025, unless the legislature enacted a bill authorizing the re-creation of the
department and its statutory entities prior thereto.
New law changes the beginning of termination of operations for the Dept. of Transportation
and Development and all statutory entities made part of the department to July 1, 2025 and
the cessation of all legislative authority for such entities to July 1, 2026.
New law supersedes the provisions of the "sunset" law which set out the procedure for
review and re-creation and which requires a separate bill to re-create each statutory entity
within the department along with additional provisions.
Effective June 30, 2024.
