Details

Spending data in Egypt is not really available: the Ministry of Finance publishes laws, quaterly briefs and suchlikes, but very few actual data. When the latter is available online, it is through PDFs. The Central Bank of Egypt also publishes data (see here for ex.: http://www.cbe.org.eg/English/Economic+Research/Time+Series/). Here, format is XLS.
