<p>Under the Ministerial and Other Pensions and Salaries Act 1991, eligible Ministers
who leave office are entitled to a one off payment equivalent to one quarter of their
annual salary at the point at which they leave Government. This applies only where
a Minister is under 65 and is not appointed to a ministerial office within three weeks
of leaving government. Individuals may waive the payment to which they are entitled.
That is a matter for their personal discretion. Details of such payments are published
in departmental annual reports and accounts, and ministerial salaries are published
on GOV.UK at <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1027301/Salaries_of_Members_of_Her_Majestys_Government_-_Financial_Year_2021-22_-_Publication.pdf"
