MPs, Senators get substantial hike in allowances


KUALA LUMPUR: The allowances for Members of Parliament (MP) have been increased from RM11,000 to RM16,000 after a Bill to raise the remuneration of elected representatives was passed in the Dewan Rakyat.

The Members of Parliament (Remuneration) (Amendment) Bill 2014 was initially deferred for its second reading in November last year after lawmakers sought to review the quantum.
