Anger after college chiefs depart with nearly £500,000 HeraldScotland Friday 13 June

 

TWO senior members of staff from a college in one of the most deprived parts of Scotland have shared a ­severance package of nearly £500,000, prompting anger from lecturers.

Ronnie Knox, the former principal of North Glasgow College, and John Gray, his vice-principal, received £471,000 of public money between them under the deal, which followed the college's merger with two other institutions. Mr Knox, who received a salary of about £120,000, was given a payout of more than £310,000, while Mr Gray, who earned £80,000, received more than £160,000.

A report into the payments by Audit Scotland has also raised the issue of transparency over the way the payments were sanctioned, stating there was no evidence they were subjected to "appropriate approval" or assessed as providing value for money.
