this is what a few people in salford had to say earlier.ey. i'm not sure that the public really needs to know this kind of information. it is just it isjust going it is just going to rile people up. i know the salaries are higher, but the women are earning a lot less, and they are doing just as good as job as the men. they should be on the same money. i think the bbc should pay competitive rates because they want people to watch the bbc. it's a national treasure and we want to keep it going but i'm shocked at what chris evans gets paid. i have been discussing this with lis howell, director of broadcasting at city university and has worked forthe bbc, itv, channela and sky news and peter fincham, former controller of bbc one and until last year he was director of television for itv before setting up his own independent production company. it's good for the bbc. there needs to be more transparency around pay and conditions than if it was a private, commercial enterprise, which it's not. would you want the salaries of everyone in the country f

0n the bbc tour today in salford there were some who felt it could go further.lot is expected of them, but it's hard to imagine earning sums like that. so i'm going to say, no, they're not worth that. it's a national treasure. it's really important, so we should be able to pay competitive rates. i am a bit shocked at what chris evans gets paid. they are on large amounts, but i've noticed that the women are on a lot less. indeed, the highest—paid woman only just makes it into the top ten. claudia winkleman at around £a50,000. indeed, looking at the list, two thirds of the names are men. in the top 20, there arejust five women, and when it comes to black or asian or bame presenters, there's not one in the top 20. this is license fee payers' money. they need to know where the money is being spent and that they're getting that value for money, and i think by having that transparency, we have the opportunity to see where there's maybe gender pay gap, and where there's issues about bame presenters perhaps not being paid as much as others. meanwhile, at radio 2, the li
