"Transparency in Government Act"; provides for establishment of State public finance website.
The "Transparency in Government Act" (S 3355) requires New Jersey to create a free, searchable public website showing detailed state financial data. State agencies must provide annual spending (including salaries, contracts, and aid to local governments), revenue (like taxes and grants), and bond debt information starting from fiscal year 2000. Data must be updated within 45 days after each fiscal year ends and cannot be removed, though private or confidential information remains excluded. The public, including residents and researchers, can access this information to track state finances, while the State Treasurer and an advisory committee oversee the website's development and updates.
