Source: REAL NEWS-Government ministers receive secret salary increase of 14% as of January 2023*
The Gaston Browne Administration reportedly has awarded a salary increase of 14 percent to its government ministers, and sources tell REAL News the pay raise is retroactive to January 2023, apparently following the results of that month’s General Election.
Accordingly, the base salary of $10,000 per month has now gone to $11,400 – representing an extra 5 percent above the 9 percent increase granted to public servants in January 2024.
Sources say the difference in salary for the last 15 months has been approved and payment is expected to be made to the ministers next week.
No mention of this increase was made in the Cabinet Notes of the past year.
