In their own words · from the filing
Standard payment terms
The most commonly used terms are 30 days. Invoices are authorised by the department head that procured the goods or services. Trade invoices are paid when due through weekly payment runs. In line with standard regulatory guidance for law firms, payment to suppliers of some client matter disbursement costs including counsels fees are made by the firm within 2 working days of the receipt of payment from clients for those costs, unless agreed otherwise with the supplier
Dispute resolution
Any queries relating to payment of invoices should first be sent to the Purchase Ledger Team. For disputed invoices, the supplier should liaise with the person who procured the goods or services to resolve any dispute or complaint.

Is this official government data?
How this is compiled. Built from official records only: Companies House and the gov.uk payment-practices service. The payment figures are self-reported — companies over the size threshold must file them by law and the board signs them off. No credit-agency data. The numbers are theirs; the plain-English read is ours. This is information compiled from public records under the Open Government Licence v3.0 — not a credit rating and not advice.
The 31-day comparison figure is the median across 6,104 companies with a current statutory report — every sector pooled, not an average of sector medians (how the figure is built).
