By Council Member Louis
A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to public disclosure of data behind the minority and women-owned business enterprise disparity studies
Be it enacted by the Council as follows:
Section 1. Subparagraph (a) of paragraph 4 of subdivision d of section 6-129 of the administrative code of the city of New York, as amended by Local Law 61 for the year 2022 is amended to read as follows:
(4) (a) No later than 2015, the commissioner, in consultation with the city chief procurement officer, shall, for each industry classification and each minority group, review and compare the availability rates of firms owned by minorities and women to the utilization rates of such firms in agency contracts and direct subcontracts, and shall on the basis of such review and any other relevant information, where appropriate, revise by rule the citywide participation goals set forth in this subdivision. In making such revision, the commissioner shall use the most recent data available and any other data the commissioner deems appropriate to consider the extent to which discrimination continues to have an impact on the ability of minorities and women to compete for city contracts and subcontracts. The commissioner shall submit the results of such review and any proposed revisions to the participation goals to the speaker of the council at least 60 days prior to publishing a proposed rule that would revise participation goals. Such review shall thereafter be conducted at least once every two years. No later than thirty days after completion of any review conducted pursuant to this subparagraph, the commissioner shall publish such review and all underlying data on the department's website.
§ 2. This local law takes effect 120 days after it becomes law.
