Sinn Féin review of TDs’ salaries under way

Sinn Féin has confirmed that a review of salaries for its Oireachtas members is under way.

However, the move could backfire for the Gerry Adams-led party.

Currently, TDs take a salary in line with the €35,000 average industrial wage. Increases in their take-home salary could be signed off on by the party leadership as early as next month.
