À atenção do Governo, como medida para a transparência dos financiamentos estatais. É simples, basta olhar para este Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006. E o que diz?
"require Federal financial assistance data, as well as data about government contracts, to be available for public access.
This bill would require the Office of Management and Budget to create a Web site listing all grant awards and contracts in a manner that would be easily accessible and free of charge. In a nutshell, this is about information to taxpayers about how their hard-earned dollars are being spent. Each award or contract would have to be listed on the Web site within 30 days of enactment of this act. Currently, no such real-time disclosure is required to grant awards, and data that is available often is not timely.
Further, there is no central database of all entities receiving Federal funds, including the nearly 30,000 organizations that are awarded nearly $300 billion in Federal grants each year. In fact, several agencies have taken different approaches to publicizing information about grantees, and all too often little or no information is available online."
