No payments have been made by the Defence Bills Agency (DBA) or the Ministry of Defence’s Trading Funds to the Smith Institute or SI Events.
A small percentage of MOD’s contract payments are not made by the DBA or Trading Funds, but are made locally against contracts placed on behalf of other Government Departments, joint venture and NATO contracts and contracts placed through collaborative projects. However, this information is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost.
