Details

The granularity of the spending data is not satisfying. [Notice pudo: this is really not what I think we should cover with spending data; I would argue such data is completely unavailable on a federal level] [SvdW: Changed answers to reflect this]. http://www.bundesfinanzministerium.de/Web/DE/Themen/Oeffentliche_Finanzen/Bundeshaushalt/Haushalts_und_Vermoegensrechnungen_des_Bundes/haushalts_vermoegensrechnungen_des_bundes.html
