This book was released on 2010-03-24 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Senior Salaries Review Body (SSRB) was asked for an interim report, ahead of the 2010 Budget, on senior remuneration in the public sector. It is critical to ensure public confidence in this area: confidence that high salaries are not being paid where they are not merited; and, where they are paid, confidence that they are justified by rigorous processes and evidence of sustained high performance. The SSRB proposals are intended to make a significant contribution to providing reassurance. The public sector is complex and so are the arrangements for pay and it has been difficult to gather comprehensive and consistent data. But it is estimated that over 25,000 people in the public sector are earning over £100,000 a year and many over £150,000. The first step is to provide clear rules through a code of practice, and this report includes a draft code which should be opened to consultation. The SSRB would like to see the code finalised by the end of July 2010 with a view to implementation by the end of 2010. Implementation would be the responsibility of the bodies in each sector. The SSRB also advocates developing a structure of pay ranges for senior public sector pay. A set of reference ranges would provide organisations or clusters of organisations with a pay framework that is currently lacking. Part C of the report details progress on a review of chief executive pay in Non Departmental Public Bodies. The methodology used could be applied more widely.

Download or read book Review Body on Senior Salaries thirty third report on senior salaries 2011 written by Review Body on Senior Salaries and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-03-21 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the 33rd report on senior salaries from the Review Body on Senior Salaries. Following the Coalition Government's announcement to tackle the budget deficit, a two-year pay freeze for all public sector workers paid more than £21,000 was put in place. This Review therefore makes no general recommendations for pay increases for the remit groups normally covered by this review, which include senior civil service, military officers and certain senior managers in the NHS. The Review Body though was already engaged in a major review of the judicial pay structure, although implementation of these recommendations for the judiciary may be affected by the overall pay freeze. The Review has set out 10 recommendations, including: that for senior officers in the armed forces the Ministry of Defence should review the performance management and pay system to define the objectives of performance-related pay and whether the existing system can be improved. The other recommendations look at the judiciary. The publication is divided into five chapters, with nine appendices

Download or read book Review of Compensation Levels Incentives and the Clinical Excellence and Distinction Award Schemes for NHS Consultants written by Review Body on Doctors' and Dentists' Remuneration and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-12-17 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Review Body on Doctors' and Dentists' Remuneration is an independent body that makes recommendations to the Prime Minister, the Secretary of State for Health, and the appropriate Ministers and departments in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland in respect of pay. The Review takes in account the following considerations: (i) The need to recruit, retain and motivate doctors and dentists; (ii) Regional/local variations in labour markets; (iii) The funds available to the Health Departments; (iv) The overall strategy of the NHS in respect of patient care. The consultant body is comprised of the most senior medical and dental staff in the NHS, who have expert knowledge in their specialities. The Review Body concludes that the overall compensation for consultants is appropriate, but has some reservations about existing schemes and believes that awards should not be a substitute for pay progression. The Review Body outlines a proposed integrated package and career structure for consultants.

This book was released on 2011-05-09 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Review Body was asked to consider two issues: payment for teachers earning £21,000 or less, in the context of the two-year public sector pay freeze that will affect teachers from September 2011; and whether there should be a limit on the value of the discretionary payments that can be applied to head teachers' pay, and if so, what it should be and how it should be applied. The only teachers whose full-time equivalent pay is £21,000 or less are some of those on the unqualified teacher scale. The Department for Education proposed a non-consolidated payment of £250. The Review Body concludes that the non-consolidated payment of £250 in both years is appropriate for all full-time unqualified teachers, with pro-rata payments for those working part-time. Remuneration for head teachers is a crucial issue, and the Review Body concludes that the case has been made in principle for a limit to be put in place, and that effective governance is key to ensuring appropriate reward whilst maintaining proper oversight of public funds. There should be a 'base' Individual School Range (ISR) for a head teacher described in the School Teachers Pay and Conditions Document (STPCD). Any discretion above 'base' ISR pay must be clearly justified and should not exceed the limit of 25% above the individual's point on their 'base' ISR in any given year. The Department should redraft the STPCD to give effect to the recommendations and to draw together all existing discretions as they impact on head teachers.

Download or read book Review Body on Senior Salaries thirty fourth report on senior salaries 2012 written by Review Body on Senior Salaries and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-03-13 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the thirty-fourth report on senior salaries with the remit of providing independent advice to the Prime Minister, the Lord Chancellor, the Secretary of State for Defence and the Secretary of State for Health on the remuneration of holders of judicial office; senior civil servants; senior officers of the armed forces; very senior managers in the NHS; and other such public appointments. However it covers the second year of the Government's pay freeze for public sector workers paid over £21,000 a year. Therefore, no recommendations for the relevant remit groups could be made. The Review Body report concentrates accordingly on any evidence about recruitment, retention or motiviation, and sets out its views on changes it would like to see in the pay and performance management systems for the remit groups, systems which are nearly all currently under review.

Download or read book Paying Our High Public Officials written by Teun J. Dekker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In almost every liberal democratic society, an issue that is a topic of constant and passionate public discussion is how much that country’s ministers, legislators, senior civil servants, and senior judges should be paid. Nor is this surprising; the issue has considerable voyeuristic appeal, particular democratic significance, and important ramifications for the functioning of the public sector as a whole. However, like most political debates, these discussions tend to be messy, fragmented, and full of unverified assertions and spurious appeals to populist sentiment. It is hardly surprising that those discussions rarely succeed in putting the matter to rest. Paying Our High Public Officials examines the political discourse concerning this question in 17 liberal democracies (Canada, the United States, Mexico, Norway, Finland, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Poland, Italy, Hong Kong, Singapore, and New Zealand). Based on many hundreds of parliamentary debates, newspaper articles, speeches, as well as reports by think tanks and high commissions of state, the book identifies seven central arguments that occur in all these societies, translates them into the language of analytical philosophy, and then rigorously evaluates them. This approach contributes to a better understanding of this controversy and may result in better-justified and more legitimate conclusions concerning which policy to adopt.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 1568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preface 2012 edition: The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First session, enacted between January 3, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 USC 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office. -- John. A. Boehner, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Washington, D.C., January 15, 2013--Page VII.
