Queensland politicians will receive a nine per cent pay rise, rather than the 42 per cent hike that led to a public outcry in May.

The independent remuneration tribunal examining Queensland MPs pay has decided MPs will receive a base salary increase of just under 9 per cent, bringing their base salary to $148,848, which works out to be a $11,699 raise on their previous salary of $137,139.

That includes a 5.35 per cent raise from August 2011 and a 3.02 per cent raise for the July 1 2013 to 30 June 2014 financial year.

"Our approach was to establish the role and responsibilities of an MP and asses the work value of the position," tribunal chair Tim Brailsford said.
