Análise das informações disponíveis nos portais dos dez municípios mais populosos do estado de Pernambuco

Abstract

Transparency is the open conduct of public administration, offering citizens the ability to control the State and the actions of its agents through the improvement of the structures of supervision, denunciation and punishment of those who cause harm to the collective interest. Can the Transparency Portal, through its official websites, be considered an effective instrument of transparency in the ten most populous municipalities in the State of Pernambuco? Assess the level of transparency of the ten most populous municipalities in the State of Pernambuco from their official portals. For the methodological framework of the present study, we will use the proposal developed by Mattar (2014), so that, as to the nature of the variable, the research fits into quantitative. Data collection is through the analysis of the portals of the municipalities of each municipality under study, in order to verify which issues are being met, following a level criterion (assignment of grades between 0 and 3). It was observed that Recife presents better performance among the sites of the prefectures analyzed in the years under study. In second place is the site of the municipality of Garanhuns, with the best performance. From the above-mentioned survey, it is noted that public transparency is not a priority of most municipal executives in the State of Pernambuco with a population above 100,000 inhabitants.
