What the reports show
Each report shows:
- supplier name
- amount
- description of what was bought
- purchasing department
- payment date
- transaction number
The amounts shown exclude VAT.
Where payments under £500 appear in a report, this is either because once the VAT element is included the total is more than £500, or because an invoice for more than £500 has been broken down to reflect different items of purchase which could also include credits such as discounts. Payments made using purchase cards are presented as a separate report.
The reports do not include:
- banking investments
- salaries
- refunds
- member allowances
- employee remuneration payments
- benefits and homelessness payments
Individual's names are not shown and are replaced with the word "redacted".
