Details of MPs' subsistence claims

Request

Could you please provide me with details of how much MPs claimed for subsistence over the last twelve months.

Ideally by MP


Response

I can confirm that we do hold information relevant to your request.

IPSA publishes information about the claims made by MPs, both on an individual basis and annually. This page on our website provides more information about the information which is published.

To deal with your request specifically this can be found on our Annual Publication page.

On the right side of the page there is a box where you can select the year you are interested in. You should then select Individual Claims which will download a file of individual claims for the whole financial year. You can then filter this by Expense Type – Subsistence to work out which MPs’ claimed this expense and how much.

As this information is available on our website it is subject to a Refusal Notice under section 21 of FOIA, because it is reasonably accessible by other means.
