2.1: Governance Structure
Develop a governance structure to develop the implementation plan, identify areas of opportunity, solicit and incorporate
public feedback, and provide leadership across the Department to create a culture of openness and transparency in operations
Stakeholder(s):
- Treasury-Wide Steering Committee: To manage Treasury's shift toward transparency and openness throughout its operations, Treasury has developed a governance
structure to develop the implementation plan, identify areas of opportunity, solicit and incorporate public feedback, and
provide leadership across the Department to create a culture of openness and transparency in operations. An Open Government
Steering Committee has been convened with representatives from each of Treasury's bureaus to develop the guidance and provide
leadership on these activities across the Department. Additional members of the committee include representatives from the
offices of Public Affairs, General Counsel, Inspectors General, Management and Budget, Privacy and Records, Deputy Chief Financial
Officer, Chief Information Officer, Procurement Executive, and Human Resources. In addition, the steering committee will develop
the reporting framework to ensure accountability to the Department and the public. The Senior Agency Official for implementing
the Open Government Directive chairs the steering committee. The high level milestones for implementing the Directive are
identified in the tracking matrix in Appendix B.
