Severance package costs Youth Justice Board dear

1 min read Youth Justice
The Youth Justice Board (YJB) is set to pay out more than 500,000 on a severance package for a single member of staff, CYP Now has learned.

Brendan Finegan, the YJB's former director of strategy, who was on a £100,000 salary, left under compulsory early severance terms on 31 March this year.

Details of his severance package, outlined in the org-anisation's annual report, show he received a lump sum of £150,000.

Under the terms of compulsory early severance, which applies to civil servants under the age of 50, he will also receive an annual payment of £30,000 until the age of 60 — meaning at least 10 years of payments, totalling a minimum of £300,000. A further lump sum of £58,000 will be paid when he reaches 60, putting the total value of the package at more than £500,000.
