I am writing to request the most detailed information available regarding the Council’s expenditure on staffing and salaries.
Specifically, I would be grateful if you could provide:
• A breakdown of total staff-related expenditure by department/service area (e.g. Adult Social Care, Children’s Services, Planning, etc.)
• Further disaggregation of salary expenditure, where available, including:
o Number of staff (FTE and headcount) per department
o Total salary costs per department
o Any available breakdown by pay band or grade
o Expenditure on agency staff and consultants
o Employer pension and National Insurance contributions
o Any other staff-related costs (e.g. training, benefits, redundancy, overtime)
