Council Employees earning over £40,000 per year

Richard Evans made this Freedom of Information request to Conwy County Borough Council

The request was successful.

From: Richard Evans

14 August 2009

Dear Sir or Madam,

Could you produce a list of all Conwy Council employees earning
over £40,000 per year? Obviously, I would not want the list to
contain their names; for each qualifying employee their job title
and salary would be acceptable.

Yours faithfully,

Richard Evans

Dear Richard Evans

Thank you for your request for information. We will now proceed with the request and it is our intention to have responded by 14/9/2009, if not sooner.

Some of the information we hold may be regarded as exempt information, i.e. it will not or cannot be given to you and you will be advised if this is the case.

Once the information has been identified the Council may also ask that a fee
be paid for processing and delivering the information to you. Details of any
fee to be charged will be notified to you as soon as possible.

too embarrassing to be published? Since the Council has now broken the law by not responding, you should request an internal review, and then if they still refuse to release the information, take the matter up with the Information Commissioner, which you can also do online at their website.

Another 7 days? - That's an awful lot of collation - just how long does it take a council worker to use a stapler one wonders? (I use the term "worker" very loosely)

Dear Mr Evans, You should ask the Council for an internal review of their decision to break the Law by not answering your request in the timescale prescribed in the Freedom of Information Act.

Dear Mr Evans

Please accept our sincere apologies for the delay with your request. The information has now been collated however some elements still require further consideration in line with the Information Commissioners guidance (see link below) on the Data Protection issues involved in the disclosure of specific salaries relative to specific posts.

It is anticipated that information will be available shorty.

Interesting - so thats 186 snouts in troughs then, very deep troughs, obviously excluding head teachers who actually do something useful for society.

I'm sure all those people who can't afford to turn their heating on this winter will sleep much better knowing where the Council Tax they are being hounded for is going...

Thanks for the information. I have to say I find it disappointing that a proper breakdown of roles and salaries has not been provided, especially since the Council itself has stated there is a 'need for open and transparent government'.

Remember this is the Council that uses rate-payers money to bribe people...
