Late Payments Consultation - Member meeting

Following the discussion with DBT officials, this is a member meeting to shape the BRC response.

Members are reminded that the consultation proposes a legal prohibition on payments beyond 60 days, with the potential for a reduction to 45 days in time. 

This includes all B2B payments including large business to large business and small business to small business - with a potential for legal remedies and automatic interest to be added to late payments.

A report of the meeting with officials is on the BRC website at https://brc.org.uk/news-and-events/news/legal/2025/gated/member-meeting-with-dbt-on-late-payments-consultation/
