Summary/Abstract: The central researched element in our paper is the transparency of local budget that represent the basic component of local public finances. Local budgets, like any other budgets, are the most important tool for the management (of local governments) planning, forecasting, implementing and monitoring the results of administrative-territorial units activity, also being an appropriate tool for enhancing performance. One of the priority themes of the current government is the public administration reform, a strong emphasis being placed on its financial component. The theme of local budgets is a complex one and in this context our study examines the transparency of public information regarding local bugets. The aim of this paper is to realize a research on budget transparency in local governments from the Center Region of Romania, regarding the availability of the budget information on the websites of the county capitals. Budgets are key documents that present the priorities of governments and the process of democratizing the budget process is an essential one in the present context. The first step in achieving this is through budget transparency.
