Payments over £250
We have published information about items of spending over £500 since April 2010, and items of spending over £250 from June 2012.
Purchasing card payments
The government's transparency agenda encourages local authorities to make public data openly available. As part of this, items of spending made using our purchasing cards can be viewed by month.
The information provided for both payments over £250 and those made using our purchasing cards includes:
- transaction date
- the department which incurred the expenditure
- amount in sterling
- beneficiary
