The issue of how public money is being spent will be addressed in the Dail this week.
Sinn Fein Sligo-Leitrim TD Martin Kenny highlighted the importance of accountability in relation to these funds.
Certain government projects have hit headlines recently, with over €300,000 being spent on a bike shed, and €1.4 million on a security hut.
Deputy Kenny questions the manner in which the money is spent.
