Dear Mr Watts
Thank you for your enquiry on how much of our funding is spent on wages
each year. Please find the response below:
¾ In 2006-07, total incoming finances to the Design Council were
£7.81million, with £6.035 million of this total being our grant-in-aid
funding from our (then) sponsoring government department, the Department
of Trade & Industry. During this financial year the Design Council had an
average of 76 employees. The total spent on staff costs (including
benefits and contributions, pensions etc) was £3,569 million over the
year.
¾ Our Chairman and Trustees are unremunerated and only claim
reasonable expenses in line with our policy.
¾ The table below will give you more specific information on senior
