Salary matters

Mark Devenport | 12:43 UK time, Friday, 5 March 2010

A blog reader has passed me some information gleaned under Freedom of Information about Peter Robinson's salary during the three week period he stepped down as First Minister. The Assembly has confirmed that his First Minister salary wasn't reduced during this time, which I reckon (although my maths is a bit dodgy) amounts to about £4000. However during her acting-up period the Enterprise Minister Arlene Foster did not get any increase in her wages. So no financial recompense then for having the columnist Quentin Letts call her an Aeroflot stewardess, after watching her at the despatch box filling in for Mr Robinson.
