state or federal law, including:
1.
The payee name;
2.
The category or type of the expenditure;
3.
A description of the reason for the expenditure, if available;

The expenditure amount; and

However, information on the Web site which is part of, or contained in, an
electronic accounting system utilized by all branches of state government, such
as the Enhanced Management Administrative Reporting System (EMARS),
shall be updated on a weekly basis.
The cabinet shall maintain exclusive control and be considered the sole
custodian of all information and records generated by and through activity of
the executive branch of government, notwithstanding the situs of the

In order to reduce Web site development costs and enhance public access and
use of records viewed through Web sites as provided by this section and KRS
7.505 and 26A.260, each branch of state government shall freely share with
the other branches of state government the software, software developments,
and all applications, data, and information within its control used for Web site
design, appearance, content, and operation in compliance with, or in
furtherance of, the purposes contemplated by this section and KRS 7.505 and
26A.260.
