Very nice! This seems like a good starting point: give a high-level overview of main government spending. What do people think? If so our first challenge will be getting adequate data (the US is particularly good in this regard relative to elsewhere -- something we looked at in our work with EU transparency). One possible starting point is PESA (Public Expenditure and Statistics); <http://www.hm-treasury.gov.uk/pespub_index.htm> Regards, Rufus _______________________________________________ okfn-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.okfn.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/okfn-discuss
