Datasets Senior salary information

As part of the government's transparency agenda we're required to make information relating to senior managers available on an annual basis at financial year end. This is to enable it to be re-used in accordance with the Open Government Licence. Our open data licence page gives details on how the data may be used.

In accordance with the Code of Recommended Practice for Local Authorities on data transparency the data includes the following information:

• Senior employee salaries
  
• Names (with the option for individuals to refuse to consent for their name to be published)
  
• Budgets including the overall salary cost of staff reporting to each senior employee
  

‘Senior employee salaries’ is defined as all salaries of £58,200 and above (irrespective of post), which is the senior civil service minimum pay band.

Senior manager expenses information is available from our statement of accounts that is published annually. The information can be found by opening the document relating to the relevant year and searching  "Officers’ remuneration".
