TITLE X PUBLIC OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND RECORDS
Chapter 112 Public Officers And Employees: General Provisions  
PART III CODE OF ETHICS FOR PUBLIC OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES (ss. 112.311-112.326)
112.3213   Legislative intent and purpose.

112.3213  Legislative intent and purpose.--The Legislature finds that the operation of open and responsible government requires the fullest opportunity to be afforded to the people to petition their government for the redress of grievances and to express freely their opinions on executive branch action. Further, the Legislature finds that preservation of the integrity of the governmental decisionmaking process is essential to the continued functioning of an open government. Therefore, in order to preserve and maintain the integrity of the process and to better inform citizens of the efforts to influence executive branch action, the Legislature finds it necessary to require the public disclosure of the identity, expenditures, and activities of certain persons who attempt to influence actions of the executive branch in the areas of policy and procurement.

History.--s. 5, ch. 93-121.
