Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Young of Cookham on 5 February (HL13233), whether they will publish the results of spot checks carried out by the Public Procurement Review Service this financial year including (1) how many contracting authorities were compliant with their duty to publish payment performance, (2) how many were non-compliant, (3) what percentage of invoices were paid within 30 days, (4) what was the total interest liability owed for late payment, and (5) what was the total interest liability paid.
A summary of the findings from spot checks conducted by the PPRS team will be included in the PPRS Progress Report, which we are committed to publishing on Gov.uk later this year.
