S 1716 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires State Treasurer to organize and publish certain contract and grant data and information on State expenditure Internet website.

This bill requires New Jersey's State Treasurer to create and maintain a public, searchable website displaying detailed information about state contracts, grants, and expenditures paid with public funds. It mandates that the website include specific details for each transaction, such as vendor names, contract costs, dates, and funding sources, organized by fiscal year and agency. The site must be free to access, prominently linked on the state's main website, and allow public feedback - while excluding confidential or private information as defined by law. This transparency measure directly affects state agencies (which must submit data) and the public (which gains access to spending records).
