Dear East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust,

Your Trust seems reluctant to reveal any details around Mr Storey's resignation last August. It was later revealed that he had been put on paid gardening leave until July 2014. A simple internet search of information provided by him shows that he was working for various organisations including the NHS during that same period

"Service Redesign Manager, North Middlesex Hospital -December 2013 – March 2014
Operations Lead, Northampton General Hospital -April 2014 – June 2014
Principal Consultant, Independent Advisor, Revolutionise Limited -November 2013 – Present"

I believe there is a real public interest story here about how much he was paid by your Trust for a period when he was effectively being paid twice by the NHS. These funds could have been put to better use looking after members of the public. I wish to know how much he was paid by your Trust while on gardening leave. This is no different to wanting to know how much a public servant is paid for doing a job and you have already said what some pay bandings are for other employees.

Yours faithfully,

J Lowe

Dear J Lowe
