Payment Data

Request

Your request was about the following information:

I am contacting you at the Food Standards Scotland to request payment data.

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)
  • A 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

 Attached you can find the table with the information you requested. Section 38(1)(b) (Personal information) FOISA applies to the content.
