Official statutory text
In order to support its proposed budgets and to improve its program management, the Department of Transportation shall develop budgeting, accounting, fiscal control, and management information systems to provide at least the following information:
(a) Documentation and control of positions and personnel services expenditures.
(b) Accounting and reporting of revenues and expenditures on a basis generally consistent with provisions of the Government Code.
These systems shall be developed to better inform the Legislature so that responsible legislative oversight of the program and budget of the Department of Transportation would be possible. These systems shall recognize the special characteristics of the department’s program.
Development of these systems shall be closely coordinated with the Department of Finance, the Joint Legislative Budget Committee, the Committees on Transportation of the Senate and Assembly, the Subcommittee on General Government and Transportation of the Senate Committee on Finance, and the Subcommittee on Resources and Transportation of the Assembly Committee on Ways and Means.
