take South Somerset District, looking after just 162,000 residents the council had sufficient funds to pay Phil Dolan, (above), that he received a total pay and pension package of almost £570,000 last year, four times the Prime Minister's £142,500 salary, well it is a big council! Phil Dolan was handed £569,000 when he took redundancy from South Somerset District Council in March,
also the local authority paid two other executives more than £300,000 - meaning it paid £1.3 million of taxpayers money to just three employers, after taking voluntary redundancy at the age of 54, Mr Dolan received his normal salary of £138,000, along with a redundancy payment of £167,000 and £6,000 to cover 'lost benefits' the council also agreed to pay an extra £239,000 into his pension scheme to cover payments that would have been made had he continued working until 65, not that I blame him for taking it, but may be it is just me, but are council bosses overpaid?
