Transparency Code

The following data has been published in line with the Local Government Transparency Code 2015:

 

Pay Multiple

Nythe Eldene Liden Parish Council does not employ any staff with a salary of £50,000 or over.

The Transparency Code requires that local authorities must publish the pay multiple on their website, defined as the ratio between the highest paid taxable earnings for the given year (including base salary, variable pay, bonuses, allowances and the cash value of any benefits-in-kind) and the median earnings figure of the whole of the authority’s workforce. The measure must:

  • Cover all the elements of remuneration that can be valued
  • Use the median earnings figure as the denominator, which should be that of all employees of the local authority on a fixed date each year, coinciding with reporting at the end of the financial year
  • Exclude changes in pension benefits, which due to their variety and complexity cannot be accurately included in a pay multiple disclosure.

Nythe Eldene Liden Parish Council’s employees one member of staff on a part time basis.

  • Number of occasions they use powers under the Prevention of Social Housing Fraud (Power to Require Information) (England) Regulations 2014, or similar powers
  • Total number (absolute and full-time equivalent) of employees undertaking investigations and prosecutions of fraud
  • Total number (absolute and full-time equivalent) of professionally accredited counter fraud • specialists
  • Total amount spent by the authority on the investigation and prosecution of fraud
