These frameworks include provision for payments to sub-contractors within 30 days of receipt of undisputed invoice.</p><p>Central records are not held for procurements partially, or fully, managed outside the procurement service. To confirm that these contracts include provisions for prompt payment of sub-contractor invoices would require a manual check of all procurement records, which would incur a disproportionate cost.</p> answering member constituency South Swindon answering member printed Robert Buckland question first answered 23/11/2018 14:12:04 answering member 4106 label Biography information for Sir Robert Buckland
