While the debate on the national minimum wage increase nationwide in the framework of the National Wage Commission is at a standstill, Diario Libre reports that the 13 Constitutional Court (CC) judges and five of the Higher Electoral Court (TSE) judges have already received wage increases.
The increase means that Constitutional Court president Milton Ray Guevara now makes RD$440,764.83, up from RD$420,726.66 a month, an almost 5% increase. Higher Electoral Court president Mariano Rodriguez will make RD$438,588.75, up from RD$400,000, an almost 10% increase.
