"Transparency in Government Act;" provides for establishment of State public finance website; requires certain public entities receiving State funds to establish similar website; makes an appropriation.
This bill requires the State of New Jersey to create a searchable public finance website displaying annual state revenue, expenditures, and bonded indebtedness data for fiscal year 2013 and subsequent years. It mandates that public entities receiving state funds - including counties, municipalities, school boards, and authorities - must establish similar websites showing their financial data within 180 days of the state website's implementation. The bill creates a Public Finance Transparency Committee to advise on website content and appropriates up to $100,000 annually from the General Fund to help public entities cover implementation costs. All data must be updated annually and made publicly accessible without charge, though the state is not required to include information not available in existing accounting systems or that would violate privacy laws.
