Prompt Payment Returns
Government Decision No S29296 of 19 May 2009 requires that all government departments and agencies pay suppliers within 15 days of receipt of a valid invoice. As part of this requirement, quarterly payment performance reports must be published on each organisation's website.
Purchase Orders over €20,000
The Programme for Government 2011-2016 commits all government departments and offices to publish details of purchase orders of €20,000 or greater. Details of purchase orders over €20,000 raised by the CSSO are published quarterly in arrears.
Payment by Electronic Funds Transfer
The CSSO pays all suppliers by electronic funds transfer (EFT). Money is electronically forwarded directly into the nominated bank account of the supplier. Payments can only be made into bank accounts held in the Republic of Ireland.
