Gordon Brown to clamp down on quangos
Gordon Brown and the chancellor Alistair Darling, said that the pay of executives of so-called quangos should not be greater than the pay increases for rank-and-file staff. The move has been brought to light following increased political pressure most vocaly from the Conservative party leader David Cameron, who berated about the “frankly astonishing salaries” paid to “quango fat cats” whilst the private sector suffers from pay and job cuts, going on to cite 10 governement quango heads earning over £250k with the top head of OFCOM receiving £417k p.a of tax payers money.
