Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 42, § 1383. Department of State Civil Service; appropriations; pro rata share paid by other agencies; billing; collection calculations

A. The cost of operating the state civil service system and instituting, developing, conducting, and otherwise providing in-service training and educational programs by the Department of State Civil Service shall be paid by agencies employing state classified employees. The total amount payable by each agency shall be calculated on the basis of a percentage of the annual gross salaries of the state classified employees within each agency, as reflected in the records maintained by the Department of State Civil Service on the last working day of the calendar year preceding the year of the billing, and shall not exceed nine-tenths of one percent of the annual gross salaries. The Department of State Civil Service shall bill each state agency the amount payable by that agency for the billing period. The amount so billed shall be payable by each agency within thirty calendar days from the date of the mailing of the billing.

B. If the amounts collected in any fiscal year pursuant to this Section do not meet the amount appropriated for the Department of State Civil Service by the legislature for that fiscal year, the commissioner of administration shall take action to insure that the Department of State Civil Service receives the full amount of the funds appropriated by the legislature.

C. The Department of State Civil Service may enforce through judicial proceedings any of the provisions contained in this Section. No suspensive appeal shall lie from a decision ordering compliance with any of the provisions contained herein, nor shall any stay order issue staying the enforcement of any such decision.
