Criticism of excessive pay
In 2016, Andrew Adonis, the former education minister, called for an inquiry in the House of Lords as he criticised the “serious controversy” of salary increases awarded to Breakwell as the vice-chancellor of the University of Bath. Her pay rise of 11%, despite the 1.1% cap on pay for non-managerial staff across the higher education sector, took her yearly earnings to £451,000. “Put all that together, and Glynis Breakwell is paid almost exactly half a million pounds, more than three times the prime minister’s salary.” - said Lord Adonis
It was also reported around the same time, via a freedom of information request, that Breakwell claimed an extra £20,000 "domestic expenses" - despite living for free in a grace-and-favour property.
