what australian politician that retired in 2015 gets $450k per year indexed
. There is no verified record of any Australian federal politician who retired in 2015 receiving a parliamentary pension of $450,000 per year, indexed or otherwise. The Parliamentary Contributory Superannuation Scheme (PCSS) provides pensions that are indexed to current MP salaries, but the maximum possible pension under current rules is about $337,185 per year for those with the longest service and highest offices[4][3]. Most retired politicians receive between $150,000 and $250,000 per year, with only a few long-serving and highly senior former MPs approaching the upper limit[4].Claims of specific individuals receiving $450,000 per year are not substantiated by official Department of Finance data or reputable fact-checking sources[3]. Such figures may arise from misinformation or confusion about how parliamentary pensions are calculated and indexed.Citations:[1] Why do politicians still get paid after leaving Parliament? https://www.thedailyaus.com.au/politics/why-politicians-get-paid-after-parliament-07-05-2025[2] Retired politicians pensions & benifits. - a Freedom of Information ... https://www.righttoknow.org.au/request/retired_politicians_pensions_ben[3] Misleading claims on political pensions are overdue for retirement https://www.aap.com.au/factcheck/misleading-claims-on-political-pensions-are-overdue-for-retirement/[4] The politicians who'll get paid for life | The Daily Aus - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tE8_fDe_D-0
