35: Remuneration and expenses of ministerial appointee

You could also call this:

"Pay and expenses for people the Minister chooses to help with water services"

If you are a ministerial appointee, you are entitled to receive payment for your work as a Crown facilitator or a Crown water services specialist. The Minister decides how much you get paid, based on a set of rules called the fees framework. You are also allowed to claim back money for travel and other expenses that you incur while doing your job, as long as they are reasonable and follow the fees framework.

The fees framework is a set of rules that the Government uses to decide how much to pay people who work for the Crown. It helps to classify and pay people who work in different roles.
