The lush severance packages are also “suspended from this day” and Redford promises not to accept one. But her power over retiring MLAs is unclear. These things are actually decided by the legislature.

As much as I despise these severance packages you can't go back retroactively and cut peoples pay. You can't force MLA's to pay back money they earned legally and you can't take away severance that has been earned under existing law. This stinks of a desperate campaign that is in full panic mode. Wonder how many MLA's will tell her to stuff it?
