HCR 135 Louisiana House · 2024 Regular Session

TECHNOLOGY: Requests all state departments to identify the cost of maintaining legacy technology systems (EN SEE FISC NOTE GF EX)

This resolution directs state departments and the Legislative Budgetary Control Council to independently assess the costs of maintaining outdated technology systems. It expands the scope of this review to include all entities under the purview of both the executive and legislative branches, rather than limiting it to the executive branch alone. The bill also clarifies that the Legislative Budgetary Control Council is responsible for approving contracts for legislative information technology services. Ultimately, each agency must report its findings and recommendations regarding these legacy systems to the relevant oversight bodies.
