Where "salary" requested is Gross per Annum and will include all extra paid for bonuses, overtime, allowances etc.
Ideally, please represent this data broken down into the following council departments:
Children services, Community Care, Corporate Services, Development Services, Executive Services and Infrastructure Services, with numbers of employees both for male and female in each of the above salary scales above for each separate department, should I have missed any departments please add and include them in this exercise.
Again with Average annual wage being around £26,500 we should be looking at a minority of employees as only looking at the staff being payed above this level.

Yours faithfully,

Gary Henderson
