Remuneration for elected members is set by the independent Remuneration Authority and varies according to the size of the area they represent, and their role.

Each year on 30 June, the Remuneration Authority makes a new determination that sets the remuneration for the next year.

Elected members are self-employed and must pay Accident Compensation Corporation levies.
