to provide transparency on how lobbyists and government officials interact

Explanation: registration and reporting are meant to ensure public visibility and accountability of lobbying — who is trying to influence which officials about what, and how much is being spent — so conflicts, undue influence, and illegal conduct can be detected and enforced. The other choices are incorrect.
