DIGEST
Amedee (SB 133)
Present law requires gubernatorial appointees to the board of directors of the Louisiana Lottery
Corporation, prior to confirmation by the Senate, to disclose to the Senate and Governmental
Affairs Committee the names of all business or professional clients with which the appointee or
any corporation in which the appointee owns a controlling interest maintains a business or
professional relationship at the time of appointment.
Provides that the obligation to disclose is a continuing obligation of all members including those
serving on and after January 1, 2011. Present law specifies the manner in which the disclosure
shall be made.
Proposed law retains present law but specifies that the disclosure prior to confirmation be made
in writing to the Senate and Governmental Affairs Committee and provides that disclosures
subsequent to confirmation be made in writing to the legislative auditor. Requires the legislative
auditor to report his findings to the Senate and Governmental Affairs Committee and to the
governor.
Present law provides that of the members of the board appointed by the governor, one of the at-
large members shall be selected from a list of five potential candidates to be submitted to the
governor by the Louisiana Oil Marketers and Convenience Store Association.
Proposed law removes the provision that one of the at-large members be selected from a list of
five potential candidates submitted by the Louisiana Oil Marketers and Convenience Store
Association.
Effective upon signature of the governor or lapse of time for gubernatorial action.
