The Supplier shall ensure that all Sub-Contracts contain a provision: requiring the Supplier to pay any undisputed sums which are due from it to the Sub-Contractor within a specified period not exceeding thirty (30) days from the receipt of a Valid Invoice; requiring that any invoices submitted by a Sub-Contractor shall be considered and verified by the Supplier in a timely fashion and that undue delay in doing so shall not be sufficient justification for failing to regard an invoice as valid and undisputed; requiring the Sub-Contractor to include in any Sub-Contract which it in turn awards suitable provisions to impose, as between the parties to that Sub-Contract, requirements to the same effect as those required by sub-clauses (a) and (b) directly above; and conferring a right to the Customer to publish the Suppliers compliance with its obligation to pay undisputed invoices within the specified payment period. The Supplier shall: pay undisputed sums which are due from it to a Sub-Contractor within thirty (30) days from the receipt of a Valid Invoice; Provide a summary of its compliance with this Clause 18.11a), such data to be certified each quarter by a director of the Supplier as being accurate and not misleading.
