Or a weekly rate: The \'except when for a week or part thereof they are actively performing their duties as appointer\' part was meant to address that and similar issues. In a week they performed their constitutional duties, they would get paid a much higher rate of pay, probably exceeding the Prime Minister and Governor-General\'s weekly rate of pay.

The reason the active pay would be so much higher is to compensate for the fact that they only get it once every now and again, probably no more than seven times during their term.

If anyone wants to suggest alternatives to the campaign process, I\'m all ears, but it still has to discourage people with money, connections or previous media exposure having a significant advantage over those that don\'t. As you say, I suppose that\'s kind of going to require a generally sober process.
