Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether any part of the Rural Payments Agency's senior management payment package is performance related.

Asked by:
Tim Farron (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

Senior Civil Service (SCS) pay awards in core-Defra and the Executive Agencies, including RPA, are based on a framework set by Cabinet Office following the Government response to the Senior Salaries Review Body recommendation. Both consolidated awards and end-year non-consolidated performance payments are determined by the performance markings the SCS receive as part of the SCS performance management process.
