The members of the board get 60. They used to get 30. The bloke who carries the can is the CEO. He gets $645,000 a year. Now, toss a few figures like that about the place and suddenly you've got a lot of angst, a lot of upset. But here is your real world issue. You either want decent people for the job, any job, or you don't. Now, I don't need to tell you that previously a lot of people doing Wellington's water work were clearly useless. In a small and not complete way, money fixes that. It is not to say big money automatically gets brilliance, but it is fair to say if you pay rubbish, you will get rubbish. The old community contribution, the give something back line, only carries you so far. You tend to get do-gooders, not professionals. And can I be even slightly more fiscally acerbic by suggesting even at these new inflated numbers, you're not exactly paying top dollar. I mean $645,000 is a lot of money if you're in year 13 or you're a teacher or you're a journalist. But it's not too much to be a CEO, and even less when you're the CEO of an entity that's under tremendous pressure and publicly accountable by a population that will want to lynch you if you fail. See, the public services, as a rule, underpays, and that in part is why the public service is in the state it's in. Cheap in general is no way to run business, sign contracts, accept quotes or operate your life. Worry less about the money, more about the outcomes. If Wellington had never had a waterway. Water worry. No burst pipes, no contamination, no poo in the harbour, and the bloke running the place was earning two million and gave you that. What a bargain.
