<p>The Government is clear that late payment and unfavourable payment practices is a serious issue, particularly for smaller businesses. We have already taken steps to tackle the issue, including making it a legal requirement for the UK’s largest businesses to report on their payment terms and practices. The Department will launch a Call for Evidence to assess what further steps and intervention may be needed to ensure small businesses are not subject to unfair payment practices.</p>
