## What this means (mechanical reading aid, not legal advice)

- The index files it under the chapter heading “Chapter Two: Judges”.
- The passage runs to about 642 words.
- Read plainly, it mentions pay and pensions — it sets pay, salary, allowance or pension terms (the words used: “Salary”).
- **Caveat:** The index holds no article number for this record. Cite the passage itself rather than a section number.
- **Caveat:** This index row contains 11 separately numbered sections, so it is a chapter-length passage rather than one provision. Cite the passage, and treat any single section number as unverified.

> This is a mechanical reading aid generated from the text above by matching words in it. It is not legal advice, not a lawyer’s interpretation, and not a substitute for the provision itself.
