PART IV.  OFFSET OF INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAX REFUNDS

AGAINST DEBTS OWED CERTAIN STATE AGENCIES

§299.1.  Purpose

The purpose of this Part is to establish a system to permit agencies of the state of Louisiana to make a claim of offset to the secretary of revenue against any amounts refundable to an individual because of overpayments of Louisiana individual income taxes for debts owed by the individual to such agencies.  It is the intention of the legislature that this offset remedy be in addition to and not in substitution of any other remedy or action provided for by law in favor of such agency for the collection of debts.
