Existing law imposes specified duties on state governmental agencies and provides for public access to government records. This bill would require, by no later than January 1, 2010, each state department and agency to develop and operate a searchable Internet Web site, as defined. The bill would also require the searchable Internet Web site to include specified information relating to each expenditure of state funds, as defined, made by that state department or agency in the most recently completed fiscal year, the ability of the user to view information in a format that may be downloaded and managed by the user, and the ability of users to provide input regarding the utility of, and recommendations for, improvements to the searchable Internet Web site.
