Part 1: The Independent Financial Review Panel

Section 12: Contents of determinations: salaries and allowances

Section 47 of the 1998 Act includes provisions which must apply to salaries and allowances payable under that section, for example, providing that if a Member is also a member of the House of Commons, his or her salary is to be reduced. This section applies those same provisions to the Panel’s determinations on salaries and allowances.
