# INSTITUTE OF REVENUES RATING AND VALUATION: council payments

Canonical: https://olympus.new-odyssey.com/data/uk-supplier/institute-of-revenues-rating-and-valuation

3 published councils paid INSTITUTE OF REVENUES RATING AND VALUATION £11,452 across 5 payments dated 20 October 2025 to 16 February 2026, as the councils publish them in their spending files.

The largest payer was Wirral Council (£7,314).

Notes:

- Payments as each council publishes them under the Local Government Transparency Code 2015, mapped onto one schema. Amounts, dates and names are not adjusted: councils differ in threshold (over £500, over £250 or all spend), in whether amounts include VAT, and in which date they publish (payment, posting or certification). Redacted payees, usually individuals, are returned as redacted and never named. See GET /v1/uk-council-spending/coverage for the councils, files and months loaded.
- Suppliers are grouped by a normalised form of the published name (upper case, punctuation removed, LIMITED as LTD, ...). Grouping is not identity: different organisations can share a name, and one organisation can appear under several. A supplier is linked to a company only through a Companies House number a council file publishes.
