The sample consists of 56 municipalities in the state of Mato Grosso, which have populations above 10,000 inhabitants and maintains portal for internet access. Data were collected on websites of municipalities that compose the sample, in the month of May 2013. It is highlighted that the municipalities were segregated by five large middle regions. The results indicate a low adherence in Mato Grosso municipalities surveyed, the precepts established in the LRF and LAI as transparency in management. Regarding accordance with the LRF requires the average compliance found was 29.69%, while the average rate of accordance with requiring the LAI was only 18.23%. With this level of accordance to the LRF and LAI we observed an overall compliance of 24.11%. The municipalities that reported more information from the middle Southwest of Mato Grosso, with an average General Index of 27.68%. The previous Budget Guidelines Law was the item of compliance inherent LRF most publicized, and is present in 38 websites of the municipalities surveyed. Permission for recording electronic reports was the item according to LAI evidenced by 47 sampled municipalities. It was also observed from tests of mean differences, that municipalities with higher GDP, higher RCL and higher annual budget, tend to disclose more information among those required by LRF and the LAI.
