tabling member printed	Lord Myners
uin	HL2782
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/03/2020 answer text <p>The Government should set a strong example by paying subcontractors promptly. Our commitment is to pay 90% of undisputed and valid invoices from small and medium-sized enterprises within 5 days and 100% of all undisputed and valid invoices within 30 days. Government departments are required to report their performance against these payment targets on a quarterly basis on <a href="http://www.gov.uk" target="_blank">GOV.UK</a>.</p><p>Through the Public Contract Regulations 2015, public sector buyers must include 30-day payment terms in new public sector contracts; and require that this payment term be passed down the supply chain. Since 1 September 2019, suppliers risk being excluded from winning large government contracts if they cannot demonstrate prompt payment.</p> answering member printed Lord True question first answered 30/03/2020 14:03:22 answering member 4200 label Biography information for Lord True
