That is the equivalent to 55-60k in england probably, salaries are much much lower here, and it does state that you can earn more by assuming a larger role.

my problem is that in no way does this job ask for someone to assess tha suitability of the scameras. And as this is a Scot Exec job this means the policy is clearly set in stone (or is that stolen money?).
