Wheels within...

I've been pointed to this sentence from the BBC Executive Board Remuneration Report 2011/2.

During 2011/12 there has also been the temporary allocation of a car and driver for the use of the Chief Operating Officer and other members of the Executive Board and BBC Direction Group for the remaining life of the car lease arrangement.


My source is puzzled as to why the Chief Operating Officer of the BBC, Caroline Thomson, gets an individual mention. It could have easily read thus, with the same meaning.....couldn't it ?

The car and driver was handed over from the BBC Trust in May 2011, when Lord Patten said he didn't want the chauffeur service required by previous incumbent, Sir Michael Lyons.


In BBC-reported figures since May 2011, Caroline Thomson has taken taxi rides to the value of £2795.99.
