PAC chairman wants Rehab to publish salaries of managers

TDs have been told that they cannot publish the salaries of senior Rehab executives without permission.

The Public Accounts Committee has been given legal advice saying it needs the consent of senior Rehab employees before it can reveal how much they’re paid.

The committee was given the data by the HSE yesterday, but Rehab has said the pay is commercially sensitive and wants it kept under wraps.

Rehab’s already agreed to publish the pay of senior managers from next year onwards – but PAC chairman John McGuinness says they should do so immediately
