Pay lift for lower court magistrates likely in new year
The Remuneration Tribunal may raise ACT magistrates pay by over 4000 annually starting January. Chief Magistrate Charles Rich could see about 6500 extra, with Chief salary proposed at 29500 and 550 allowance, ordinary magistrates at 27300. Vacancies may be re advertised as pay scales aim to attract talent amid calls for independence from public servants. The Australian Law Journal noted the dispute’s impact on legal salaries nationwide.
