How will the cabinet secretary's public sector pay policy be applied to the pay levels of the most senior staff at Scottish Enterprise, bearing in mind that the previous chief executive's salary was increased to take account of new responsibilities—responsibilities that are now to be removed? The two most senior people at Scottish Enterprise currently have an overall remuneration package of £398,000. In light of the announcement of changes to Scottish Enterprise's remit, will it not be appropriate for the cabinet secretary to review remuneration packages, or else explain to Parliament how they can be justified?
