The data in the Research and Development Budget Survey is compiled annually from a comprehensive survey of Government Departments and Agencies. This year’s survey is still in the field and I expect its publication in Q4 this year.  The estimated public expenditure is €817m for 2020 and €905 for 2021.  Estimated figures for 2022 are not available.
