Senate Resolution No. by Senator Barrow urges the Louisiana Division of Administration to provide a detailed report to the Senate regarding state contracts for which funds were paid but services were not rendered, or contracts that were rescinded, canceled, or terminated before all deliverables were completed. The resolution emphasizes the importance of transparency and accountability in the management of public funds, particularly given the thousands of contracts the state has entered into over the past decade. It seeks to identify and assess the financial implications and circumstances surrounding these contracts to ensure prudent stewardship of taxpayer money.

The requested report should cover contracts with an original value of $100,000 or more from the past ten years and include specific information such as the contracting entity, contractor details, contract number and dates, a description of the goods or services, financial details, reasons for non-fulfillment, and any recoveries or offsets related to the contracts. The report is to be submitted electronically to the Senate leadership by December 1, 2026, and copies will also be sent to the commissioner of administration and the David R. Poynter Legislative Research Library as mandated by law.
