A Galway based TD has launched the Public Payments / Purchase Order Tracker, bringing together €78.5 billion in 400,000+ transactions reported by 190+ State entities.
Fianna Fáil TD, Albert Dolan says the dataset shows who was paid, for what, and when.
Information he says that, to their knowledge, no single department or agency currently aggregates across the system.
This is Phase 1 of a wider plan to make public procurement work better for people: transparent, trackable, and delivering value for every euro.
Albert Dolan TD says on the doors people ask, where does the money actually go.
Deputy Dolan has been giving more details to Midwest Radio’s Michael D. McAndrew.
