Payments to suppliers
The Local Government Transparency Code 2015 requires that local authorities publish details of their expenditure as a minimum on a quarterly basis.
We publish details of all payments made to suppliers on a monthly basis. Most of these payments are shown exclusive of VAT. Where VAT cannot be recovered, the invoice total has been used.
