§730. Transfer of credit and contributions
A. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, particularly R.S. 11:701, any person who was employed as a teacher's aide or teachers' aides classified as tutors during the period 1970 to 1975, by a parish school board and who is presently a contributing member of the Louisiana School Employees' Retirement System, and who has not withdrawn his employee contributions, shall be entitled to receive as creditable service in this system all of such service and shall be entitled to transfer to this system the employee and employer contributions standing to the account of the member in the Louisiana School Employees' Retirement System, plus interest, at the Louisiana School Employees' Retirement System board-approved actuarial valuation rate, compounded annually, on all contributions for each year of contribution until transferred.
B. The member shall make application to this system for the establishment of credit in this system for all such service. This system shall promptly make application to the Louisiana School Employees' Retirement System for the transfer of all such creditable service and contributions standing to the credit of the member, plus interest, and the Louisiana School Employees' Retirement System shall transfer all creditable service, contributions, and funds to this system.
C. If the amount transferred from the Louisiana School Employees' Retirement System is less than the employee and employer contributions which would have been required had the person been a member of the Teachers' Retirement System of Louisiana, plus interest at the Teachers' Retirement System of Louisiana board-approved actuarial valuation rate, compounded annually, the member shall be required to pay this difference in order to complete the transfer. Interest shall be calculated from the date of commencement of service until the date of transfer.
D. After the transfer of funds and payment of the interest due thereon, the member shall be prohibited from claiming credit for membership service in the Louisiana School Employees' Retirement System and shall be a contributing member of this system.
