The determination of public service payscales is primarily a matter for the Minister of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform. 

In common with other public servants, the rate of pay for Conservation Rangers is determined within the framework of public service payscales that are negotiated and settled by the Minister of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform and unions as part of pay talks that make up the public service pay agreements.  Any review of the Conservation Ranger rate of pay would be a matter for the Minister of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform within that framework.  I understand that, under the extension of the Building Momentum: A New Public Service Agreement, Conservation Rangers will receive a 1.5% pay increase on 1 October 2023.
