Show Notes
Edinburgh city councillors have approved a 3.3% pay increase for senior roles, matching the base salary rise for all councillors. The Labour administration pushed for the change, while the SNP group opposed it, citing budget savings and accusations of favoritism. Despite debate, all groups except SNP backed the increase, affecting fourteen senior councillors with rises over £600 annually. The minimal extra cost is easily covered, with Edinburghs council tax rise being the lowest in Scotland.
