Tribunal issues clarification of Determination 3/2014

Issued 27 March 2014

Subsequent to the release of Determination 3/2014 the Queensland Independent Remuneration Tribunal has identified a minor calculation error that relates to the additional salary payable to the office of Premier. The new amount of additional salary payable to the office of Premier is $230,312 (which replaces the figure of $230,714).

The consequence of this amendment is to alter the total salary of the office of Premier to $379,160 (base salary of $148,848 plus additional salary of $230,312).

Access the amended Determination 3/2014.

Specifically the change affects paragraph 1.17 of the Executive Summary, the fourth paragraph on page 64 and paragraph 1 of the Determination 3/2014 on page 69.
