A. (1) Each agency employing members of the system shall submit a certified monthly retirement report to the board of trustees containing the following information:
(a) The earned compensation of each employee who was paid during the period reported.
(b) The monthly base pay of the employee as of the date of the report.
(c) The individual employee contributions equal to the percentage of the earned compensation of the employee as established by R.S. 11:62(5) for the appropriate employee, which the employer shall cause to be deducted from the salary of each member on each and every payroll of the employee for each and every payroll period. This amount shall conform to Article X, Section 29(E)(2)(a) of the Constitution of Louisiana.
(2) The total employer contributions as established by Subpart E of Part II of Chapter 2 of Subtitle I of this Title of the total earned compensation reported shall also be remitted for all employees covered herein.
(3) Terminal leave payments shall not be subject to employee or employer contributions.
B. (1) The monthly retirement report and the payments due representing employee and employer contributions shall be considered delinquent when not received in the office of the director within fifteen days after the close of each calendar month.
(2) Delinquent payments may be recovered through the following actions. Upon a certification to the state treasurer by the director that an agency's monthly report and payment of contributions is delinquent, the state treasurer shall deduct the amount of the delinquent contributions from any monies then available for distribution to or for the benefit of that agency and shall transmit said amount directly to the board of trustees of the retirement system. Upon making such a deduction, the state treasurer shall immediately notify the agency that the deduction has been made and that the funds available for distribution to it are reduced accordingly. In a like manner, the director of the system, upon receipt of said funds, shall credit such funds to the proper account affected thereby and shall notify the agency thereof.
