Since I was elected to serve as Member of Parliament for Worsley, I feel it is right that details of my expenditure from allowances should be accessible to local people.

I have voted for reform, including measures which ensure transparency of claims with receipts required to back any claim.

Full details of my allowance claims can be viewed on the UK Parliament website and have been reproduced here.

Below are links to files of edited scans of documents submitted in support of claims made against:

• the Additional Costs Allowance - paid to reimburse Members for necessary costs incurred when staying overnight away from their main home

• the Incidental Expenses Provision - the costs associated with running an office

• the Communications Allowance - introduced in 2007/08 which provides funds for MPs to communicate with constituents

The blocked out areas in the scanned files do not hide purchases, but are to protect sensitive information such as bank account details, addresses, telephone numbers, confidential information about staff etc. Some of the files are large and may take a short while to download.
