What data is expected?
Records of actual (past) national government spending at a detailed transactional level; at the level of month to month government expenditure on specific items (usually this means individual records of spending amounts under $1m or even under $100k).

Details
Lesotho has a computer system for government procurement and spending (http://www.finance.gov.ls/regulations/GOL_Procurement_System_Features.pdf). Therefore, we can assume that the data does exist and is in digital form. However, there is no specific document for monthly government spending (http://www.finance.gov.ls/reforms/procurements.php). http://www.finance.gov.ls/documents/budget_book.php
