ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½: 'Amazon and Apple are poaching our staff'
The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Director of Radio and Education has defended the organisation's decision not to publish the salaries of stars who receive their pay through ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Worldwide or independent production companies.
James Purnell told the World at One that if all salaries were made public, including those outside the licence fee, the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ would be at a "huge disadvantage" in the industry.
He added: "We live in a world where every week Amazon and Apple are poaching our staff."
On the gender pay gap Mr Purnell said: "We do have further to go."
