question text	Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the value for money for licence fee payers of those BBC journalists paid over £650,000 per year.
tabling member printed	Lord Truscott
uin	HL1200
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/07/2017 answer text <p>The public deserves to know how its licence fee is being spent, which is why the government required the BBC to publish the salary details of all BBC staff and talent paid over £150,000. This was published for the first time as part of the BBC 2016/17 annual report. The BBC is operationally and editorially independent from government, and the amount it pays its staff and talent is a matter for them. It is for licence fee payers to determine whether the BBC is value for money.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 26/07/2017 13:18:17 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde

uin	HL1085
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/07/2017 answer text <p>Re-offending rates in youth justice are high, and the outcomes for young people leaving custody are not good enough. That is why we set out our plans to reform youth custody in response to Charlie Taylor’s youth justice review last December, so that it is better equipped to help young people turn their lives around and play a constructive role in their communities upon their release, away from re-offending.</p><p> </p><p>We will continue to engage with key stakeholders and consider their recommendations as this work progresses.</p> answering member printed Lord Keen of Elie question first answered 26/07/2017 14:35:04 answering member 4538 label Biography information for Lord Keen of Elie
