Introduced  by  M.  of  A.  DenDEKKER  --  read once and referred to the
  Committee on Governmental Operations

AN ACT to amend the state  technology law, in relation to creating   the
  resultsNY.gov website

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Legislative findings and declaration. The legislature here-
by finds and declares  that  many  New  York  state  agencies  currently
provide  valuable  information to the public regarding policy issues and
government programs and initiatives. However, the public  would  clearly
benefit  by having website access to important performance-based statis-
tics, policy issues and comparative information on a user-friendly  "one
stop  shopping"  basis.  Such a website would dramatically expand public
access to useful information and enable taxpayers to more readily review
and better understand the many state programs that affect the quality of
life such as public safety, education, energy, transportation,  housing,
health,  law  enforcement  and the environment.   Additionally, it would
enhance government transparency  and  accountability  while  helping  to
ensure the public that their taxes are being spent prudently.
  Therefore,  to achieve the above-stated intent, the legislature hereby
finds and declares that there be established the "resultsNY.gov" website
to be initiated, operated and maintained by the state office  for  tech-
nology  with  oversight  authority  by  the  committee on resultsNY.gov.
Patterned after the federal office of management  and  budget's  Expect-
More.gov  website,  this  proposal  will  establish a new, user-friendly
website that provides the public with the ability to review the perform-
ance of state government  agencies  and  programs.  ResultsNY.gov  would
provide  a  new  single access website, with specific indicators to help
the public determine how effectively tax dollars are  being  spent,  and
how individual government programs are performing.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                      [ ] is old law to be omitted.
