Unlike other Councils Rutland County Council is not that as transparent and does not make it easy to find the basic information other councils provide.
Most other councils make it easy to find details relating to Officer Renumeration, Rutland County hides these details like the loss huge losses made by Live@museum.
Rutland County Council has made many STAFF redundant, yet Senior staff have received large pay rises. Carol Chambers pay is up from 75 k to 90 k. (no wonder she walks about looking like a Mill Street Shop window dummy, sorry drives around in her huge 4x4) the total number of Staff paid over 50 k up from 3 to 8 not including 2 new directors.
