SB 494 Louisiana Senate · 2024 Regular Session

ECONOMIC DEVELOP DEPT: Provides for the Department of Economic Development. (gov sig) (EN SEE FISC NOTE See Note)

This bill amends the existing law establishing the Department of Economic Development by renumbering its internal sections and making minor text adjustments. The changes involve deleting specific lines and renumbering sections sequentially from Section 2 through Section 8 to correct the bill's structure. These modifications do not alter the department's core functions or funding but serve to organize the legislation for clarity. The bill directly affects the state agency responsible for economic development by updating its statutory framework.
