Mr. Weir

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change (1) what the annual salary of the Chief Executive of the Defence Nuclear Safety Committee was in each of the last 10 years; (267067)

(2) what the (a) final severance package and (b) pension arrangements were for the previous Chief Executive of the Defence Nuclear Safety Committee.

Mr. Kevan Jones

I have been asked to reply.

The Defence Nuclear Safety Committee is an advisory non-departmental public body and does not have a chief executive. The Committee is headed by a chairman who is neither salaried nor has a departure package nor pension arrangements. The chairman’s remuneration is a daily fee of £315 and he is engaged on average for 14 days a year.
