S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 3831 2009-2010 Regular Sessions I N S E N A T E April 2, 2009 ___________ Introduced by Sen. GRIFFO -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Energy and Telecommuni- cations 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. LBD09835-01-9
