(1)     have a cause of action or a defense pursuant to the agreement; and

(2)     challenge an action or inaction of a department, agency, political subdivision or instrumentality of this state on the grounds that the action or inaction is not consistent with the agreement.

C.     A law of this state or the application of the law is valid despite the inconsistency of the law or its application with the agreement.
