Summary

Existing law requires the Department of Finance, the Controller, the Treasurer, and the Department of General Services to collaboratively develop, implement, utilize, maintain, and operate the Financial Information System for California (FISCal) as a single integrated financial management system that encompasses the management of resources and dollars in the areas of budgeting, accounting, procurement, cash management, financial management, financial reporting, cost accounting, asset management, project accounting, grant management, and human resources management. Existing law requires the Office of the Financial Information System, upon its establishment, to implement the FISCal system, in a specified manner, with Wave One consisting of certain departments. Existing law authorizes the State Public Works Board to issue debt to pay for the development and implementation of the FISCal system, declares the intent of the Legislature to use General Fund appropriations for the cost of the FISCal system, and continuously appropriates funds and subaccounts to pay for the system's development, implementation, operation, and maintenance. This bill would require the FISCal system to additionally include a state budget transparency component that allows the public to access nonconfidential General Fund and federal fund expenditure data, such as the amount of an expenditure and a brief description of its purpose, using an Internet Web site. The bill would define "General Fund and federal fund expenditures" as expenditures or transfers of funds in excess of $5,000, but would not include transfers between 2 state departments or agencies or payments of federal or state assistance to any individual recipient. The bill would make an appropriation by requiring the expenditure of continuously appropriated funds for this new purpose.
