Is the Minister aware that, due to the inefficiency of the Stortext system used by the Treasury Solicitor’s Department to pay its accounts with firms such as costs lawyers, some of these small firms have outstanding accounts going back to May? This compares unfavourably with HMRC, which pays its accounts with minimum delay.

My noble friend makes a good point, of which the House will certainly now be aware—as am I.
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether the Treasury Solicitor's Office is paying its small suppliers within the time recommended by Government guidelines; and, if not, why not.[HL2619]
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether the Treasury Solicitor's Office is paying its small suppliers within the time recommended by Government guidelines; and, if not, why not.[HL2619]
The Treasury Solicitor's Department (TSo1) has made a commitment to pay all suppliers promptly and within 30 days. Over the past three years 85% to 90% of supplier invoices and fee notes were paid within this time frame.
The TSo1 systems do not capture information on the circumstances that result in payment after 30 days. However, over 50% of payments relate to fee notes received from barrister's chambers. These detail the work completed, the agreed hourly rate and any additional charges such as travel. The amount on a fee note is considered negotiable and where negotiations take place payment can take more than 30 days.

My Lords, it is a very sensible approach for large companies to provide credit down the supply chain. It is not just Rolls-Royce—many other companies are doing the same, and I think that they should be encouraged to do more of it.
