Former BBC news presenter Huw Edwards, who resigned from the BBC on medical advice in April, saw his salary increase by £40,000 last year.
Edwards was suspended in July 2023 over allegations in The Sun newspaper of paying a young person for sexually explicit photos.
Police did not take any action against him, saying there was no evidence that a criminal offence had been committed.
He received between £435,000 and £439,999 in the year 2022/2023, which rose to £475,000 – £479,999 between April 2023 and April 2024, the BBC’s latest annual report shows.
Edwards remained on the payroll while suspended, which is normal BBC policy.
