At the Ministry of the Attorney General, there were signs of restraint. While some people earned slightly more, many others saw their salaries frozen. Assistant deputy attorney general Malliha Wilson's salary was $212,676 in both 2012 and 2011. The same applies to many of the top-earning assistant Crown attorneys, such as James Cavanagh, who made $210,282 both years. Some even saw tiny decreases. Crown attorney Natalino Bernardon, for example, earned $203,560.89 in 2012 after taking home $203,561.25 in 2011.
