"– Currently, MPs contribute about $11,000 a year each into their own pensions — around 14 per cent of the $76,000 in total annual contributions — while taxpayers cover the remaining $65,000 for each parliamentary pension. Under the changes, MPs will eventually have to contribute 50 per cent to their pensions, with the remainder being borne by taxpayers."
