Matt Brittin told British lawmakers on
Thursday he couldn't put a figure on his salary. The question came up during a
committee hearing into Google's tax affairs.
The conversation went like this:
Meg Hiller, the committee chair: What
do you get paid Mr Brittin?
Brittin: I'll happily disclose that if
that is a relevant matter to the committee.
Hiller: It is a relevant matter, I'm
asking you so it's a relevant matter, can you tell me what you get paid please
Mr Brittin?
Brittin: I don't have the figure, but
I'll happily provide it.
Hiller: You don't know what you get
paid Mr Brittin? Perhaps you could give us a ball park of what you get paid,
forget the share options -- what's your basic salary?
Brittin: I don't have the figure, but
I'll provide it privately if it's relevant to the committee to understand my
salary.
