"The Hon Prime Minister is correct in stating that the increases have not been implemented yet. There is still the process of changing the laws to give it legal effect, which in the normal process of any proposed law, public consultations and views will be received by the Solicitor General’s office before it is brought to Parliament for debate and passing. That is why the motion gives up to 6 months from 1st August for this process to take place.
The public have the right to know the full story of the Emoluments Committee’s duty to follow parliament processes as well as the accusations being leveled at those that voted for the motion by NFP. I would implore members of the public to obtain a copy of the Emoluments Report which is public record, and note the the reductions as well as things that did not change. You will have the opportunity to be heard when the normal process of proposed laws are undertaken, which includes public consultation."
