Whenever a state agency is required by R.S. 39:1695 to pay a penalty, it shall be presumed that the fault is that of the head of the state agency and, in such cases, the head of the state agency shall submit to the Joint Legislative Committee on the Budget at its next regular meeting following the payment of such a penalty a report on the actions taken to correct the problem.

B. Any state agency which requests that the legislature make a supplemental appropriation for the agency shall identify at the time of the request what part of the amount is necessitated because of any penalties imposed by R.S. 39:1695.
