Universities are autonomous bodies and it is for them to determine pay arrangements for their staff. However, the Government, in the 2017/18 Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) grant letter stated:<\/p>
<\/p>
\u201cThe Government is clear that efficiency includes demonstrating restraint in senior pay and remains concerned about the substantial upwards drift in salaries of some top management. We would like to see senior leaders in the sector exercise more pay restraint.\u201d<\/p>
<\/p>
Jo Johnson, the Minister for Universities and Science, has continued to call on the sector to show restraint in Vice Chancellors' pay and for the sector to demonstrate more leadership especially at a time when students are concerned about value for money.<\/p>

Fees for English domiciled undergraduate students studying at Higher Education Institutions that are funded by the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) are subject to maximum fees, which are set in legislation. HEFCE funded institutions that have an access agreement in place for widening participation with the Office for Fair Access (OFFA) can charge a higher fee than those that do not. In addition, HEFCE funded institutions that have demonstrated high quality teaching by achieving a Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) rating can charge up to a higher fee than those that do not.<\/p>

The government does not assess the fees of individual institutions. It sets maximum fees for eligible students in legislation. Only those institutions with an access agreement in place for widening participation with the Office for Fair Access (OFFA) can charge fees up to a highest cap.<\/p>

The Department for International Trade has a strong and capable trade policy team which has grown significantly since June 2016 (from 45 to over 300 today), and is continuing to grow.<\/p>
<\/p>
We continue to hire the brightest and best talent from within the UK civil service and externally, in order to build a world class trade policy team that can deliver the best outcomes for the UK.<\/p>
<\/p>
At this stage, the Department\u2019s primary focus is on developing our trade policy positions, international relationships and approach to future trade negotiations to ensure we are in the best position to agree trade deals once we exit the EU.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Department has recently appointed Crawford Falconer to the role of Chief Trade Negotiation Adviser and Head of Trade Profession. Mr Falconer brings a wealth of global trade expertise from over 25 years of working on trade policy in the New Zealand government, the World Trade Organization and academia.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4570", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Price"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Price"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-07-17", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-07-17T12:24:59.057Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "202"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "International Trade"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "International Trade"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-07-03", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "Her Majesty's Government how many officials with substantial experience of international trade negotiations have been appointed to the Department for International Trade.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3743", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Adonis"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Adonis"} ], "uin" : "HL312"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/747330", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Education"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/747330/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
Academy trusts are responsible for setting their own remuneration for staff, and best placed to consider the factors relevant to their decisions on this. It is essential that we have the best people to lead our schools if we are to raise standards.<\/p>
We hold an analysis of multi-academy trusts that pay staff more than £150,000, but do not have a list of those between £140,000 and £150,000. The analysis does not identify the names of the individuals nor whether they are the chief executive. The latest available data, for the year ended 31 August 2015, is in the table below, which identifies 71 trusts (3%) paying over £150,000. We expect data for the year ended 31 August 2016 to be available by the end of July 2017.<\/p>
Information about remuneration is available in trusts\u2019 financial statements published online by Companies House (available by searching \u201cCompanies House service\u201d).<\/p>
