Members of the Welsh assembly are to have their expenses published online every month - in a move which should be a boon for journalists covering the Welsh parliament.
It follows a row over two Welsh AMs claiming for the purchase of iPods.
In the Scottish parliament MPs publish their expenses quarterly.
After a lengthy freedom of information battle by journalists, the UK parliament has yet to resolve what MP expenses will be made public on an ongoing basis.
