ALL the bonuses paid to an entry-level minister form part of his S$1.1 million annual salary norm, and are not in addition to that amount, Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean said in Parliament on Monday.

He also said that all components of a political office holder's annual salary are set out in the 2012 White Paper titled "Salaries for a Capable and Committed Government". This was submitted by an independent committee after it held extensive consultation with Members of Parliament (MPs) and the public.
