Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council
Metropolitan district in Greater Manchester, North West (E08000005)
Spending in 2025/26
Records held for 2013/14 to 2025/26, of which 10 complete financial years. Figures shown are for 2025/26, the most recent year held in full.
How this figure was checked
Its total is checked against this council's published revenue account budget. The check is made after money this body passes to other councils, police and fire authorities, and to central government as the business rates share, has been taken out: a precept, a levy or a rates share is collected on another authority's behalf rather than spent here. Payments to the health service, to colleges, to pension funds and to HM Revenue and Customs are not taken out, because those are things this body bought or owed. Both figures are shown.
What Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council publishes above its threshold is a part of what it spends, not all of it. Wages and payments below the threshold are not in it.
Who Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council paid in 2025/26
Payments to named individuals are counted in the total above but never listed here. A linked supplier has a page of its own showing what every public body this site holds published about paying it, which is a lower bound and never a total.
What Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council spent it on
Categories are the council's own labels, and the largest few only. They do not add up to the total.

About this data
- The threshold
- Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council publishes payments of £500 and over. Anything below that is not in the file the council published and is not in this table, so the totals here are not the council's total spending.
- Net or gross
- Amounts are the values in the council's own file. The totals row adds them as published, so a credit note reduces the total in the same way it reduced the council's spending. The year total shown at the top of this page is £549,062,828.
- What is not in the file
- Staff pay, pensions and anything else a council pays without raising a supplier invoice. Payments below the threshold the council set. Money the council received. Any period the council has not published: this table holds 2013/14 to 2025/26. Part years held: 2014/15, 2018/19, 2019/20.
- Payments to individuals
- A public body is required to withhold the name of a private individual. Those rows read "Individual (name withheld)", they are not in the supplier filter, and they are counted in the exact record count. The name is not held here.
- Coverage
