Audit: Some Louisiana boards and commissions reported as inactive | Louisiana
SUMMARY: A financial audit of Louisiana’s boards and commissions revealed multiple compliance issues. Reviewing 491 entities from July 2023 to June 2024, auditors found 13 boards that did not provide required personnel and financial data, prompting the legislature to consider action against them. Eighteen boards were noted as inactive, and among these, 12 were also inactive the previous year. The auditors suggested legislation or possible abolishment for stagnant boards like the Floodplain Evaluation Commission and the Parks and Recreation Commission. Additionally, 34 boards failed to report required meeting details, while six lacked identified members on their websites. The Division of Administration plans to address these findings.
