This dataset is part of the Local Data Bank (Bank Danych Lokalnych, BDL), maintained by Statistics Poland (GUS), under subject code P1544 covering public finance archival data. It provides yearly territorial time series on the expenditure of powiat (county-level) budgets allocated to government and self-government administration, spanning administrative levels from voivodship down to gmina. Territorial units are identified using the national TERYT coding system, allowing consistent linkage with other statistical datasets. The series supports analysis of local government spending patterns and administrative costs across Poland over time, and is accessible through the GUS API for integration into statistical or research applications.”PUBLIC FINANCE › ARCHIVAL DATA. Local Data Bank (BDL) subject P1544: yearly territorial series for Poland (voivodship to gmina level), units keyed by TERYT ids.
