R.S. 42:341 defines “agency” for the purpose of the law to include:

A department, office, division, agency, commission, board, committee, or other organizational unit of a “government entity.” See R.S. 42:341(1).

“Governmental entity” is defined for the purpose of the law to mean “the State or any political subdivision.” See R.S. 42:341(4)

Therefore, the law does not appear to apply to quasi-public organizations such as private non-profits who do not meet the definition of “agency.” However, a quasi-public organization might be required to comply with the law if its contractual agreement with a public entity provides for compliance with the law.
