Summary

Members of a state's Legislative Assembly and Legislative Council are entitled to salaries and allowances that the state legislature decides by law from time to time. Until the state legislature makes such a law, the salaries and allowances will be the same as those that were in effect for members of the corresponding provincial assembly just before the Constitution came into force.
