Records the public is owed, and the clock on each one.

Senior officials’ personal income declarations

Public officials have been legally required to declare their personal income and assets since 2014. Those declarations have never been published, so there is no way for the public to check a declared income against a lifestyle or a contract.

Legislative monitoring database

Committed under Liberia’s 2017–2019 OGP Action Plan, with the Governance Commission named lead institution. It was never delivered, and no revised date has been published.

Monthly county-level disbursement data

The Local Government Fiscal Council, the body meant to distribute funds to counties, has still not been seated. Without it there is no published record of what each county actually received.

Individual legislative voting records are not published

Liberia’s own Senate website lists Voting Records as a section of its site. The page returns a 404 — it isn’t live. The Legislation & Records page that does work publishes the final text of passed acts, but not how any individual member voted to pass them.

This is the record that would let anyone hold a specific senator or representative accountable for a specific vote, rather than the Legislature as a body.

No official, itemized pay register for individual lawmakers exists

Neither the Legislature nor MFDP publishes what each of the 103 sitting senators and representatives is actually paid, by name. What is known comes from two other places: one senator’s own public disclosure of his compensation, and an outside watchdog’s estimate that the Legislature’s leadership did not confirm when asked (see what is known on the Legislature page →).

A December 2025 bill to cap lawmaker pay at US$5,000 a month is itself indirect evidence that current pay runs well above that, but a cap proposal is not a payroll record.

No public, name-by-name record of lawmaker asset declaration compliance

Liberia’s National Code of Conduct (2014, §10.1/10.2(h)) and the 2022 LACC Act amendment (§4.1(g)) require every senator and representative to declare assets and liabilities before taking office and periodically after. In 2024 the House of Representatives voted to have the Chief Clerk publish members’ declared assets in local newspapers. Neither commitment has produced a single, searchable public record. LACC has published compliance lists before, but for exiting executive-branch appointees, not lawmakers, and news coverage describes compliance among legislators as low without naming who specifically has or hasn’t filed.

This is why every senator and representative on the Legislature page’s transparency bar → currently reads “Not yet verified” rather than a real score. The tags update as specific filings are checked against a primary source.

Interactive citizen budget portal

Committed under Liberia’s current OGP Action Plan, led by the Ministry of Finance, with a self-set window closing in January 2027. It is not overdue yet, and there is also no published sign of it.

County shares of concession revenue aren’t shown reaching counties

Liberian law entitles counties to a share of revenue from concessions operating within their borders, mining, oil and gas, forestry, and agriculture. Those funds are deposited into government accounts, but senators say they have not been shown reaching the counties they are owed to. Grand Cape Mount and Grand Kru are the counties named so far, both flagged elsewhere on this site.

What budget line pays for the National Youth Pathway Program?

The Ministry’s own July 22 announcement describes LRD 30,000 (about US$165) promised to 2,000 women and market vendors, plus a Vacation Job Program for 3,500 youth this July and August, on top of LRD 60,000,000 (about US$331,000) in grants. It names no budget line, no total program cost, and no funding partner. Not the FY2026 national budget, not a donor, nothing. Follow the Money LIB flagged this publicly on 5 August 2026; this case tracks whether the Ministry answers.

Where is the signed FY2026 national budget?

MFDP published the FY2026 budget on its own website as “approved,” but no Executive Mansion announcement confirmed presidential assent, and the Legislature says it was never formally notified. Former House Speaker J. Fonati Koffa said plainly: “I have not received a signed copy in my office.” Weeks later, the Finance Minister described the FY2025 budget as still “the operative fiscal framework,” a statement nobody has reconciled with the claim that FY2026 was already signed into law.
