And since this announcement is revision 5, I also checked the older revisions and could use them to follow the salary for these posts since 2003. One can see the payment did rise quite significantly - more than a 100% rise in these 6 years. Compared with the inflation rate of around 4% annually this raise was way above inflation compensation.

The 2003 announcement refers to an older regulation dated from 1989 as being the being invalidated by that act, however I failed to find that one or any other similar older ones in the Royal Gazette archive.
