Voting record
Based on 9 recorded Commons divisions at Second or Third Reading of bills tracked by Hear, Hear — not a full voting record. “Didn’t vote” means Parliament has no vote recorded for them in that division (absent, abstained, paired, or excused). See the All votes tab below for every division.
See Dan Carden’s full voting record on Parliament’s site →
150 bills currently going through Parliament. Dan Carden has a recorded vote on 6 of them so far.
Most bills only reach a vote at Second or Third Reading, and plenty never get one, so “no recorded vote yet” usually just means the bill hasn’t had a division (or we couldn’t match one to it) — not that Dan Carden avoided it. Click a bill for Parliament’s own page.

Written questions to government
No written questions on file for Dan Carden yet — this only covers what Hear, Hear has fetched so far (see Written questions), not necessarily every question Dan Carden has ever tabled.
Business costs (IPSA)
£314,495.42 paid out to or for Dan Carden across 134 claims — combining every financial year on file, not just the current one — covering office costs, accommodation, travel, and bought-in/temporary staffing. This does not include Dan Carden’s permanent staff’s salaries — typically the biggest single share of an MP’s real costs — which IPSA only publishes once a year, after the year closes, as one aggregate figure, never as individual claims. Some categories (especially travel) are reported by IPSA as one whole-year total rather than itemised by date — marked “Aggregated” below. See MP expenses to filter this to a single year.
Early Day Motions
No Early Day Motions on file as tabled by Dan Carden — this only covers motions tabled within Hear, Hear’s current tracking window (see Early Day Motions), not necessarily Dan Carden’s full record.
All-Party Parliamentary Groups
Dan Carden is a listed officer of 5 All-Party Parliamentary Groups on file. See APPGs for the full register and the biggest funders overall.
Read this carefully: funding is declared by the group (often to pay for a secretariat that runs it), not paid to Dan Carden personally, and declaring it is a legal requirement rather than a sign of wrongdoing. This only covers groups Dan Carden is a listed officer of — ordinary members aren’t published. Amounts are Parliament’s own figures; where it gave a banded range the midpoint is used, so totals are approximate. Funders are grouped by name, so the same organisation spelled very differently may appear twice.
