Details

Though only defined in 28 categories, the government expenditure data is available via Statistics Norway, and a CC 3.0 BA compatible license. <- NB. since this is NOT at a "detailed transactional level with information at the level of month to month government expenditure including money spent on specific contracts or with specific vendors.", I find it incorrect to answer yes to all the availability questions Edit: thank you for the comments. I'm amending the answers to your suggestion. However, I cannot find a mention of the specification of the expenditure data, that you kindly mentioned, anywhere in the Open Data Census documentation ( the description above the answer sections of this page is actually about transport data ). <- I would say data exists in digital format but is not available at transactionnal level only aggregated (pc)
