To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether data to be provided by large firms under the draft regulations on the duty to report on payment practices and policies will be collated and then published in a format which will allow for comparison between those firms.

The Government will provide a web service for businesses to publish information about their payment practices and performance. The reports will be available online for anyone to scrutinise.
The web service is currently being developed with input from potential users. Data collation and comparison is being investigated as part of this. We expect that collated data will be downloadable and/or available on data.gov.uk.
