BRITISH government ministers will have their pay frozen for another five years as the government tries to reduce the budget deficit, Prime Minister David Cameron said on Sunday.
Cabinet ministers receive £134,565 (S$278,500) a year, including their parliamentary salary. Their pay has been frozen since 2010, when it was cut by 5 per cent as part of the then-coalition government's austerity efforts.
