I don't think this data can be anonymised. The disclosure of
individual invoices, bills, receipts etc is required by law. In
England and Wales by s 15 of the Audit Commission Act 1998.
The only statutory exemption is for personal information about a
member of staff. This does not extend to personal information about
anyone else.
Given that these details must be disclosed by law, they are
presumably not subject to the DPA's non-disclosure provisions - see
DPA s 34.
