MPs' salaries to rise to almost £94,000
MPs’ SALARIES could rise to almost £94,000 a year after the body responsible for their pay recommended an above-inflation increase.
The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Ipsa) announced yesterday that it is proposing a 2.8 per cent rise in April, subject to a consultation.
If approved, this would take an MP’s annual salary from £91,346 to £93,904.
