STATE MPS are pocketing more than $9000 for a single meeting as they double-dip into the public purse. All but seven of the 70 Labor MPs have been handed lucrative second government posts on top of their already handsome pay packets. Among them are Coogee MP Paul Pearce who was last year paid an extra $18,276 on top of his $130,000 base salary for chairing just two meetings of the standing committee on parliamentary privilege and ethics. That works out to more than $9000 in salary and expenses for each meeting.
