The increase approved on 4 August is effective from 1 July, 2017.
A statement from the Prime Minister’s Office says this is the first salary adjustment applied for the Ministers since their admission to their respective positions.
In 2015, His Majesty’s Cabinet resolved that it was only the Civil Servants that would be awarded with a 5% COLA.
The Ministers’ similar entitlements were put on hold for now two years.
