Invoice Payment Performance - Find a freedom of information request

I would like to request the following information relating to invoice payment performance under the Freedom of Information Act 2000:

1. Payment details for supplier invoices paid from April 1 2019 - March 31 2021 for transactions where the payment date is later than 30 days from invoice date to include the following fields:

• Supplier name
• Invoice date (date on invoice)
• Date invoice was paid
• Invoice gross value

2. It would be appreciated if the following could be included if available and can be incorporated within this request:

• Your Invoice reference
• Supplier invoice reference

This data is published by most local government / public sector organisations on their websites in accordance with transparency requirements. In essence this request covers the same data with additional date fields (invoice date and payment date) so should not be deemed commercially sensitive or data protected.

Lincolnshire County Council is committed to paying all undisputed invoices within 30 days.

Performance is good and continues to improve each year, as highlighted on the Council's website.

Most delays in payments arise because: invoices are submitted late; are sent to the incorrect address; are in dispute, or; have credit balances held on supplier accounts; etc.
