23.195. Register of all state bonds and evidence of indebtedness — content of register — report by division to general assembly, when, purpose — copies delivered to whom — all state agencies and state auditor to furnish information. — 1. The oversight division of the committee on legislative research shall maintain a register of all state bonds or other evidences of indebtedness of all state agencies and of entities of the state given authority by law to incur indebtedness, whether or not the indebtedness is a liability of the state, including lease purchase agreements of at least ten thousand dollars for personal property which have been issued or entered into by the state of Missouri or by any state agency, authority or institution. Indebtedness compiled in the register shall include but not be limited to that incurred by the third state building fund, the higher education loan authority, the agriculture and small business revenue authority, the health and education facilities authority, the Missouri economic development commission, the environment improvement authority, the state-supported educational institutions of higher learning, the bi-state development authority, the several interstate bridge authorities, and any metro transportation districts. The register shall contain all the details concerning the issuance and retirement of such bonds or other evidence of indebtedness, including, but not limited to, the date of issuance and maturity, the name of the issuing state agency, terms and costs of any lease purchase agreement if applicable, the rate of interest, the manner of redemption, the purpose for which issued, and, if retired, the date and manner of retirement.
2. The oversight division shall report on the total bonded and other indebtedness including lease purchase agreements of this state and its various agencies, entities, and institutions to the individual members of the general assembly on or before January fifteenth of each year. Copies of the report shall also be delivered to the governor, state auditor, state treasurer, and the state librarian. Copies shall be made available to other interested parties. Such report shall contain sufficient data and information to enable the members of the general assembly to determine the amount of indebtedness outstanding for each purpose for which bonded and other indebtedness has been incurred and the total amount of money which will be necessary to fully repay all principal and interest due on such bonded or other indebtedness or to fulfill the terms of any lease purchase agreement; including, but not limited to, a summary of all pertinent information contained in the register required by subsection 1 of this section.
3. Inclusion of any indebtedness in this register shall not be construed that the indebtedness is, or is not, state indebtedness.
4. The state auditor and each state agency and entity shall cooperate fully with the oversight division in collecting information for this register, and shall provide information as requested for inclusion therein.
