Question to the Wales Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what proportion of contracts issued by his Department and contractors include provisions to impose, as between parties to the subcontract, that any payment due from the contractor to a subcontractor under the contract is to be made no later than the end of a period of 30 days from the date on which the relevant invoice is regarded as valid and undisputed, as required by the Public Contract Regulations 2015.

The Office of the Secretary of State for Wales receives procurement services from the Ministry of Justice and does not issue contracts directly.
