The Watford Observer has asked for senior council officers’ salary details to be made public.

Three councils in Hertfordshire did not appear on this year’s “town hall rich list” because they did not submit financial data to the TaxPayers’ Alliance.

Employees at Watford, Three Rivers and Hertsmere councils did not feature on the comprehensive list of staff whose total annual remuneration exceeded £100,000 in 2015-16.

Reporters submitted Freedom of Information (FOI) requests to each of the three councils in an effort to obtain the figures.

The data will be published when it is received.
