MPs set for above inflation pay rise to nearly £94,000

MPs' basic salary is set to rise by 2.8% to £93,904 from April, following a decision by the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority .
Ipsa's recommendation reflects government plans for public sector workers, including teachers and NHS staff, and will be finalized in mid-March after a consultation.
The proposed increase is higher than the current inflation rate of 2.5% and is part of a three-year plan to link salary rises to average public sector pay figures.
Ipsa Chair Richard Lloyd stated that the pay proposal recognizes the 'current economic climate' and the role of MPs within the wider public sector.
