most of our volume and value of trade payables is inter-company purchases of finished product that have 90 days payment terms, therefore we pay the majority of payables within the 60 days onwards bracket

Were there any changes to the standard payment terms in the reporting period?

No

Were suppliers notified or consulted about these changes before they were made?

N/A

on some capital expenditure from foreign suppliers, there are payment terms in excess of 120 days where a project is completed we have retention payments etc, that seem to obscure the payment terms
