La. R.S. 11:516

The board of trustees may take such actions as it deems necessary or appropriate to provide for the joint administration of the retirement system and the Louisiana State Police Retirement System; however, no action shall be taken which would impair the integrity of the board of trustees of each of the systems or the integrity of funds and investments of each of the systems. The boards may, pursuant to the authority herein, appoint the same secretary-treasurer or secretary-manager, any other provision of law to the contrary notwithstanding. Funds appropriated for the administration of each system shall be used for such purpose and in the category of expenditures appropriated but otherwise may be transferred to accomplish the purposes of this Section without the necessity of additional approval by the legislature, the Legislative Budget Committee, or its successor, or the division of administration or its commissioner.
