Making allowances

The National Audit Office have been running their calculators over latest data from the BBC's move to MediaCityUK, Salford Quays. They note a certain lack of formal control over allowances paid to some who moved; 11 people received over £100,000.

But the grim news is for those who might be fingered for the next move north; 1,000 further staff, yet to be identified, will be asked to take the Pendolino one way - and no new buildings will be rented. They'll be accommodated by "better use of space".  Additional allowances will last a maximum of one year, instead of two, and there'll be no one-off payments (the first wave got £5k) or salary enhancements (some got 10%).
