Northern Ireland’s MLAs will get a 27% pay raise to £67,200 in April 2026, with penalties if a government isn’t formed within 18 weeks.
Northern Ireland’s MLAs will receive a 27% pay rise, increasing their salary from £53,000 to £67,200 starting April 1, 2026, approved by the Independent Remuneration Board despite widespread public criticism.
The increase aims to align pay with peer parliaments and ensure the role remains financially viable.
New sanctions will cut MLA pay by 10% every six weeks if a government is not formed within 18 weeks of an election.
The board cited delays in past reviews as a reason for the adjustment, while political leaders across parties expressed concern over fairness, timing, and Stormont’s performance.
