Call for Evidence

19 July 2010

The Hutton Review of Fair Pay in the Public Sector, announced by the Chancellor in June, today issued a call for evidence, inviting views from all interested parties on issues around fairness in pay.

Announcing the call for evidence, Will Hutton said: “Ahead of my interim report in the autumn, I will be developing a definition of fair pay and exploring the benefits of fairness in pay and in the processes by which pay is determined.   I will be examining the evidence on pay dispersion in both public and private sectors, and the relationships between the two.  I would like to invite the evidence and views of experts and interested parties as I do this.”

Representations from all interested parties are invited. Below is a suggested list of questions against which representations may be made. Respondents should address any of the questions where they feel they can make a contribution, as well as offering any further comments they may have.
