The Chancellor of the Exchequer (Mr George Osborne)
Will Hutton has today published the final report of his review of fair pay in the public sector.
In May the Government asked Will Hutton to make recommendations to the Chancellor and the Prime Minister by March 2011 on promoting pay fairness in the public sector by tackling disparities between the lowest and highest paid in public sector organisations.
The Government welcome this report and are grateful for the work of Will Hutton and the staff of the review. The Government are committed to striking a balance between value for money for taxpayers and fair pay for public sector workers. We will give careful consideration to the recommendations and respond in detail in due course.
The report is available in the Vote Office and the Printed Paper Office and it has been deposited in the Libraries of both Houses.
The report is also available on the review’s website at
