Records of actual (past) municipal spending at a detailed transactional level, for example, at the level of month to month expenditure on specific items (usually this means individual records of spending amounts at a fairly granular level - e.g. $5-50k rather than at the $1m+ level). (Note: a database of contracts awarded or similar is not considered sufficient. This data category refers to detailed ongoing data on actual expenditure)

Comments

Data for the government expenditure is quite parcellar. It is not available in bulk and not very detailed. As such the levels of aggregation are quite high. The dataset is also separated between operating expenses and development expenses, which prevents from having a good overview of the state of the expenses of the government of Singapore. The data is only provided on a year to year basis, no monthly data is available to us. For the development expenses, please see :
