PUBLICATION OF SALARIES AND REMUNERATION PACKAGES OF BBC EXECUTIVES

That this House recognises the understandable public interest which has been generated by the publication of salaries and expenses of executives at the BBC earning six figure salaries; believes that all salaries and remuneration packages paid to individuals, either directly or indirectly, from public funds exceeding three times the current national average wage of £25,123, during the tax year 2008-09, should be placed in the public domain and made available for public scrutiny; and further believes that this practice should be implemented and the figures up-rated as a standard requirement for each future tax year.
