The bill amends the definition of "regional economic development organization" within the Louisiana Competes Regional Economic Development Program. Specifically, it removes the "South Central Planning and Development Commission" from the list of recognized organizations and replaces it with "South Louisiana Economic Council."

This change aims to update the framework of regional economic development organizations in Louisiana, ensuring that the entities listed are current and relevant to the state's economic development efforts. The bill reflects a commitment to enhancing regional collaboration and support for economic initiatives across Louisiana.
