MPs’ salaries could rise to almost £94,000 per year after the body in charge of their pay recommended a slightly above-inflation increase.
The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Ipsa) announced on Monday that it is proposing to increase MPs’ pay by 2.8% in April, subject to a consultation.
If approved, the increase would take an MP’s annual salary to £93,904, up from £91,346. At the start of the last Parliament, in 2019, MPs were paid £79,468.
