A. Terms of Reference
- To review the basis and level of salaries for the President, Prime Minister, political appointment holders and Members of Parliament to help ensure honest and competent government.
- Take into account salaries of comparable jobs in the private sector and other reference points such as the general wage levels in Singapore.
- While the President's salary should reflect his high status as the head of state and his critical custodial role as holder of the second key, it should also take into account the fact that unlike the Prime Minister he does not have direct executive responsibilities except as they relate to his custodial role.
- Ministers' salaries should have a significant discount to comparable private sector salaries to signify the value and ethos of political service.
- New salaries will take effect from May 21.
