| Answer submitted by Todd P. Murphy, a former member of the Southeast Regional Airport Authority in response to a notice of delinquency. |

Mr. Murphy filed an answer February 2, 2015, stating that the Southeast Regional Airport Authority was abolished during the 2014 legislative session. Therefore, he was not required to file a disclosure statement for 2013.

La. R.S. 42:1124.2.1 requires financial disclosure for each member and designee of a board or commission which has the authority to expend, disburse or invest $10,000 or more of funds in a fiscal year on or before May 15th of each year during which the person holds office and the year following termination of the holding of such office. However, if the holding of the office terminates in January, then she will not be required to file a financial statement the year following termination as long as she files a financial statement during the year in which the holding of the office terminates that includes the period she held the office that year.
La. R.S. 42:1124.4 provides that upon discovery of the failure to file, failure to timely file, omission of information or inaccurate information, the Board shall notify the filer by sending him a notice of delinquency by certified mail. The notice of delinquency shall inform the person that the financial statement must be filed, or that the information must be disclosed or accurately disclosed, or that a written answer contesting the allegation of such failure, omission, or inaccuracy must be filed no later than seven (7) business days after receipt of the notice of delinquency.
