Debts Outstanding to the Taxpayer

The Parliamentary Service has confirmed that no further payments have been received by it since 30 June, the end of the previous financial year. Two parties still owe us money.

United Future $20,997
NZ First $157,934

The amount of time it is taking is ridiculous. UFNZ get some credit for the $50,870 paid to date but it has been almost a year. This is why interest is a good thing – discourages late payment.

The other parties have all done the right thing and paid.

Does anyone know wordpress well enough that they could arrange for there to be a little widget at the top of my sidebar not just showing how much each party owes, but updating every minute with accumulated interest at say 10% compounding? Then everytime people visit the site they would be reminded of the money owed the taxpayer?
