§191.1. Termination of unfunded programs and Acts
A. Beginning with budgets presented for Fiscal Year 1986-1987 and in addition to the requirements of R.S. 39:28 et seq., each budget unit of the state shall compile a listing of all legislatively authorized programs and Acts of the legislature directing any activity to be administered by such budget unit for which implementing funds were not appropriated in the prior fiscal year. The listing shall be submitted to the executive budget office, the legislative fiscal office, and the Joint Legislative Committee on the Budget as an addendum to the annual budget request.
B. Following the review, analysis, and study of the listings provided above, the Joint Legislative Committee on the Budget shall submit its findings and recommendations thereon to the members of the legislature not later than two weeks prior to each regular session of the legislature as an addendum to the report on the proposed executive budget required by R.S. 24:653(C).
C. The committee shall include a draft of any proposed legislation as shall be necessary to accomplish its recommendations. If the committee recommends termination of an unfunded program or activity, it shall cause legislation to be introduced specifically providing for the repeal thereof. If the committee recommends continuance, it shall recommend appropriating funds therefor and any other legislation directing specific changes therein as a condition of continuance of such legislative authority.
