Purchases of goods and services between Jan - Dec 2022: FOI Release

Information requested

I am requesting information on all payments to external suppliers for purchases of goods and services between 2022-01-01 and 2022-12-31.

What is requested is a list of these payments, ideally in Microsoft Excel format, which contains as much of the following information for each payment as possible.

• Supplier name
• Amount paid, excluding VAT
• Payment date (or some other relevant transaction date, for example billing or booking date)
• Unique invoice-id or a transaction-id number for each payment.
• Some description of the nature of the expense (for example cost centre or booking account name)

I am not asking you to do manual time consuming compiling. I am only asking for an extract from your accounting software with as much of the above stated information as you can conveniently and reasonably provide.

Response

I enclose a copy of all the information you requested in the format you asked for (Microsoft Excel workbook). The response includes redactions where the payment was made to a named individual who was not an external supplier.
