Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what proportion of suppliers to his Department and its agencies and non-departmental public bodies are signatories to the Prompt Payment Code.

The DCMS is a signatory to the Prompt Payment Code. The DCMS does not hold this information for its arm’s length bodies and it could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.
