Details

The Ministry of Finance makes monthly revenue and spending reports available als XLS files, but these do not list individual items or transactions but list only aggregate expenditures for personell or purchased goods and services (http://mof.ge/en/4646). It's not clear if more detailed information is centrally collected and aggregated on a monthly basis.

On a side note: All government agencies use a centralized e-procurement system to purchase goods and services. Data on non-classified government contracts and bills/receipts is available at https://tenders.procurement.gov.ge. The data includes transactions from state bank accounts to suppliers for the implementation of contracts, but no bulk data is available.
