Tuesday 10th June 2008, 2:59PM BST.

MORE than 460 States workers earned more than £70,000 last year.

And 141 of them – nearly a third – were pushed over the £70,000 threshold for pay and contributions to pensions and social security during 2007.

The figures have come in a preview of the States accounts figures which will be made public a week today.

According to the brief report filed on www.gov.je, attached to the ministerial decision by Chief Minister Frank Walker to publish the figures, among the 464 earning more than £70,000 are 18 staff put over the threshold by overtime or standby pay.

It’s funney how whenever anything goes wrong Walker is never to blame, it’s always someone else. He could have probably found this out by doing a search on goggle.
