Some of Britain’s leading charities have been accused of handing their chief executives excessive pay rises.
Thirty executives at the country’s 14 leading international development charities now earn more than £100,000, it emerged last night.
Conservative MP Priti Patel, pictured, says taxpayers deserve to know how their money is spent. They'll be 'shocked to see so many highly paid executives in charities that are dependent on public funds'
Despite falling donations, 11 bosses at the 14 charities which make up the Disasters Emergency Committee are now paid more than the Prime Minister’s £142,500.
The figures display a marked increase in salaries at the organisations, which employed just 19 people on six-figure salaries in 2010.
The charities employ nearly 200 staff who are paid more than £60,000 - an increase of 16 per cent between 2010 and 2012. Full story...
