Invoices were paid as follows:

• within 30 days: 86%

• on or after day 61: 11%

Proportion of invoices paid in accordance with the term in section 68(2) of the Procurement Act 2023 during the reporting period: 86%.

We are currently unable to identify and remove disputed invoices from this calculation, which would otherwise improve the above result.

All invoices are paid at the earliest opportunity once reviewed and approved. As a result, 83% of all invoices were paid within 15 days.

91% of invoice value was also paid to terms in the year.

The statistics above are in respect of the year ended 31 March 2025 and exclude Latimer and Grange.
