Dear Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport,

How many press officers do you employ?

How many earn more than £50,000 a year?

How many earn more than £100,000 a year?

Can you publish all salary bands for press officers?

Yours faithfully,

Abdul Hai

Dear FOI Team,

I would like an internal review as I believe the following is wrong as public authorities publish a list of all staff who earn more than £50,000 a year.

Please note that the specific number of employees earning more than £50,000 per year has been withheld under section 40 (personal information) of the Act. This is an absolute exemption and therefore does not require a public interest test.

Yours sincerely,

Abdul Hai
