Sinn Fein's wage bill in Northern Ireland 'averages at more than £53,000 per full-time role'

Sinn Féin's wage bill in Northern Ireland is more than every other Stormont party combined.

Wage and salaries expenditure for the party's northern operation was £799,334 last year, according to their latest accounts.

The documents said the equivalent of 15 full-time staff were on the payroll. The party said this included their seven MPs, who unlike in other parties do not receive a salary from Westminster as they do not take their seats.
