28 FEBRUARY 2019: MPS' PAY FOR 2019-20

The annual adjustment to MPs’ basic pay for 2019-20 will be an increase of 2.7%, bringing the overall salary from £77,379 from to £79,468 from 1 April 2019.

The additional salary paid to Committee Chairs will increase by 2.7% from £15,509 to £15,928 as of 1 April 2019.

This is in line with our determination on MPs’ pay, published in July 2015, where we committed to adjusting MPs’ pay at the same rate as changes in public sector earnings published by the Office of National Statistics (ONS). This was confirmed in July 2018 following a further review of MPs’ pay.

The full determination can be viewed on our website, alongside more information on our review of MPs' pay and pensions.
