Dear Mr Turner

 

FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST

 

 

Further to your request under the Freedom Of Information Act 2000 (FOIA)
for information relating to Compromise Agreements I respond as follows.

 

Under the FOIA any person making a request for information is entitled to
receive confirmation as to whether such information exists and is held by
the Council, and is entitled to have that information communicated to them
except where the requested information falls under one of the relevant
exemptions. In such a case the information is deemed to be exempt from the
Council’s duty to disclose it.

 

Following the Council’s assessment of the information and the relevant
exemptions, the Council also has a duty to determine whether the release
of the information is in the public interest, despite the exemption
applied to it. 

 

All FOIA requests are therefore dealt with on a threefold analysis.

 

1)     Whether the Authority can identify the information requested

2)     Whether there is an exemption within the FOIA which prevents the
information from being released

3)     Whether, despite the exemption, it is in the public interest to
release the information requested.

 

Taking this analysis into account I now deal with your request for
information.

 

You have requested information relating to Compromise Agreements and
taking the above threefold test into account the Authority can confirm
that it holds the information you have requested. In applying the second
test, the Authority concedes that there is no relevant exemption to this
request and as such have enclosed the information requested, please see
below. As there is no relevant exemption, there is no need to apply the
third stage public interest assessment.

 

You asked the following questions;

 

I'd like to know the total number of staff (current and ex), since 2010,
who have;

 

1, been offered compromise agreements

 

2, the salary of those offered compromise agreements  

 

3, salary of those who accepted these agreements  

 

4, total amount spent on compromise agreements

 

5, number of those who were offered and accepted a compromise agreement
who then returned to work for the council since accepting.

 

6, entry salary for those who returned to work for the council compared to
the salary they were on when they signed the compromise agreement and the
percentage of their salary the agreement comprised of.

 

The answers to the questions are below:

 

1)     11 (all ex employees)

2)     Total £308,531 per annum

3)     Total £308,531 per annum

4)     Total £120,924

5)     0

6)     Not applicable

 

I hope the information supplied is to your satisfaction however, if it is
not please feel free to contact me on the number below should you have any
queries in relation to this response. Please note that in responding to
further enquiries I can only comment on the information contained within
this correspondence and cannot provide any further information that may
pertain to an additional FOIA request.

 

Yours sincerely,
