Gov. Tom Wolf announced Friday that he plans to publish a daily schedule of public appearances along with a weekly work schedule.

In the past, governors have released information about public appearances, but they seldom included the level of detail apparent in documents available on the governor's website Friday.

On Thursday, for example, Wolf had lunch with Chief of Staff Katie McGinty and several other top advisors in the Governor's Residence before meeting with business groups at Conference Room 238.

"I firmly believe that creating a government that works starts with making sure public officials are held accountable for their actions," Wolf said, in a written statement. "I was hired by the people of Pennsylvania, and they deserve to know how I serve through my office. It's time to restore the public's trust in our government by pushing for reforms and initiatives that increase openness and transparency."

Wolf's schedule for Jan. 21 through Friday is included in its entirety below:
