Names of landlords receiving money from IPSA

Request

I would like to submit a Freedom of Information request for the names of landlords who receive money from IPSA under the expenses system.


Response

IPSA holds the information that you request.

I can confirm that prior to receiving your Freedom of Information (FOI) request, we were already in receipt of an FOI request (Reference FOI2012-A067a) relating to details of all Members of Parliament who claim for rental accommodation under the MPs’ Scheme for Business Costs and Expenses and their landlord names.  I can confirm that we have provided, and published, a response to FOI request reference FOI2012-A067a.  The response, which includes the information that you request, may be viewed via this link to the Freedom of Information section of our website.

The FOIA states that information that is accessible by other means is not subject to release.  I understand that you are already aware of the release but I am now writing formally in response to your request to confirm that, as the information you have requested is already available on our website it is exempt from disclosure under section 21 of the FOIA (information accessible to applicant by other means).
