watchdog is expected to recommend that basic salaries rise by about 15 per cent,

around 25 per cent, or nearly £16,500, taking their pay to more than £82,000 has
also been discussed.But the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority is likely to propose the lower rise from 2015, to bring MPs in line with civil servants and other professions. Express.
