10% avg is pretty achievable considering that there tends to be a "bonus" pay adjustment for civil service every couple of years.
Back in 2006, fresh grads only started with 2500-3000. The 4k trend probably only started from 2014 onwards.

Starting pay is based on the scheme and not the job function.

The key advantage which policy officers have is job exposure and exposure to senior management. This can help increase progression pace if you are deemed to have a higher than average CEP. Of course there are other opportunities for operational officers but I would reckon that it's fewer because of the nature and visibility of policy jobs vs operational jobs
