Paying Suppliers

Why Does This Measure Matter?

From 24 February 2025, there is a requirement under the new Procurement Act 2023 to pay all suppliers within 30 days after receipt and to publish Payments Compliance Notices every six months. The lines on this graph demonstrate our success in meeting our obligation to pay suppliers promptly.

Information About This Chart

The Council's standard terms are to pay within 30 days of receipt of an invoice, but our statistics/data make no allowances for invoices that have been in dispute (e.g. for a price discrepancy or undelivered goods or services) and have therefore taken more than 30 days to pay from receipt of the invoice.
