TaxPayers’ Alliance responds to revoking of public sector exit payment cap

For immediate release

 

Responding to the public sector exit payment cap being revoked, John O’Connell, chief executive of the TaxPayers’ Alliance, said:

“Having delayed it for five years, mandarins managed just three months without tapping up taxpayers for six-figure payouts.

"Unless the rules are urgently replaced, private sector workers who have faced a year of unprecedented hardship will once again be forced to foot the bill for golden goodbyes.

“Ministers must commit to bringing back this cap, sticking to their manifesto commitments and ensuring taxpayers aren't once again fleeced by pampered public sector bosses."
