Jason Miller updates from Executive Leadership Conference

The stimulus act is generating huge amounts of data, which will be available online starting this Friday.

From “Agencies scrubbing recovery data in preparation for release Friday” on FederalNewsRadio.com:

“The Recovery Board will make public Friday data from more than 120,000 entities across the country. This information will explain in greater detail how agencies have spent, contracted out or granted more than $194 billion under the Recovery Act as of Sept. 30.

“Ed DeSeve, special advisor to the Office of Management and Budget director for implementation of the Recovery Act and special advisor to the Vice President, says agencies needed more time than initially thought to get the data ready.

“DeSeve, speaking Sunday night at the Executive Leadership Conference sponsored by IAC and ACT, says the law mandates agencies to publicize the data by Oct. 30, or one month after the end of the fiscal year. DeSeve says the Recovery Board thought this could be done by Oct. 10, but as they went through the data they found some mistakes.”

Jason joined me live from the ELC to talk about the data release, and what will happen with it once it’s available. We also talked about the other events going on at ELC.
