"The Remuneration Authority is an independent statutory body that determines the remuneration for judicial and statutory officers who need to have, and be seen to have, independence from the Government. For example, the Remuneration Authority determines the remuneration for Judges because Judges need to be, and to be seen to be, impartial, independent from Government, and free from political influence or interference in their decision making." This is crucial for our structure of governance and contributes to public trust and confidence in the judicial system. "The Remuneration Authority Act … prescribes the criteria the Remuneration Authority must consider in determining officers' remuneration. The criteria include the requirements of the position, relativity to the market, and fairness to those whose remuneration is being set and to the taxpayer. Determinations are made and reviewed on an annual basis. The Government has to implement the Remuneration Authority's determinations."
