Car allowance
Aaron made this Freedom of Information request to Drainage Council for Northern Ireland This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.
Dear Drainage Council for Northern Ireland,
Recently, with the resignation of the Chief Executive of Northern Ireland Water, details emerged of his salary and benefits.
In the package was a yearly "car allowance" reported to be in the region of £15,000 per year.
I wish for your Department to furnish me with information relating to any employees, contractors, Directors etc that are paid paid a car allowance as part of their contract of employment, terms and conditions and the like.
I wish to know how many employees receive the payment
I wish to know the grade of employees
I wish to know the amount they receive and how often
I wish to know how the Department justifies the payment
when we are being encouraged to car share and use public
transport by the NI Executive frequently.
Please note i do not wish to receive any personal details
about any employees that may identify them and exempt my
request, i just want facts and figures.
Yours faithfully,
Aaron
