Letter to the Chairman of the Committee
from Mr John Gieve CB, Permanent Secretary, Home Office
ANNUAL REPORT:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
At the recent evidence session I offered to
write with details of my pay. Martin Narey and Leigh Lewis are
similarly content to share this information. My salary, and that
of my colleagues, is set out below:
| Pay Range |
| John Gieve | £140-145k
|
| Leigh Lewis | £135-140k
|
| Martin Narey | £135-140k
|
This information, presented in the format used by the Department's
Resource Accounts, is for current gross salary and does not include
any performance pay or bonuses for this year as they have not
yet been agreed.
Further senior management pay information is also contained
within the Department's Resource Accounts and the Annual Report
(Table 6(iii)).
Martin Narey has also asked me to take this opportunity to
respond on a couple of detailed points raised in his evidence.
He confirms (question 44) that in 2006 non-overcrowded capacity
will at that point be 70,400. He also confirms (question 80) that
no targets have been issued to Category C prisons in respect of
prisoners who must be reclassified as Category D, other than the
constant pressure on Governors to re-classify prisoners as and
when necessary.
