Letter by email

Dear [redacted]

I write in response to an email received from you to our office on 13 June 2023 in which you requested “a list of invoices that were not paid within 30 days for the last 6 financial years which would feed into the Regulation 113 Notice you are required to publish each year as part of your obligations under The Public Contracts Regulations 2015, with the following information for each invoice (where available):

  • The name of the Supplier
  • Supplier email address
  • Supplier company registration number
  • Supplier postal address
  • Supplier telephone number
  • Supplier website
  • The date of the invoice
  • The invoice reference
  • The gross value of the Invoice
  • The date the invoice should have been paid by
  • The actual payment date of the invoice
  • The total amount of interest liability due to late payment of the invoice
  • The total amount of interest paid to the supplier due to late payment of the invoice.”

Your request has been handled as a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

I am a regulator independent of, but appointed by, government. As my office is an arm’s length body of the Home Office, payment responsibility is managed by the Home Office, and I therefore do not hold the information you have requested. You may wish to consider a separate request to the Home Office under the provisions of the Freedom of Information Act should you still require the information you have asked for.

If you are dissatisfied with this response, you may request an independent internal review of our handling of your request by submitting a complaint within two months to the address below, quoting reference BSCC-FOI-1123-HD. If you ask for an internal review, it would be helpful if you could say why you are dissatisfied with the response.

As part of any internal review, our handling of your information request will be reassessed by staff who were not involved in providing you with this response. If you remain dissatisfied after this internal review, you would have a right of complaint to the Information Commissioner as established by section 50 of the Freedom of Information Act.

Kind regards
