View answerNeither of the two Advisors in my Department exceeds the relevant pay guidelines referred to by the Deputy.
As I have previously informed the House, both Advisors were appointed at the first point of the Principal Officer standard scale, in accordance with the Guidelines on the Staffing of Minister's Offices, issued in March 2011.
