Covers 9 Mar 2016 to 11 Sep 2026 — Parliament’s votes data doesn’t go back further. “No vote recorded” is Parliament’s own list of members with nothing recorded for that division: it can mean absent, deliberately abstaining, paired, or excused, and the data doesn’t say which.

Government & opposition roles

No government or shadow front-bench post on file for Jen Craft — most MPs never hold one, so this is the normal state for a backbencher, not a gap in the data.

Written questions to government

No written questions on file for Jen Craft yet — this only covers what Hear, Hear has fetched so far (see Written questions), not necessarily every question Jen Craft has ever tabled.

Business costs (IPSA)

£211,902.28 paid out to or for Jen Craft across 201 claims — combining every financial year on file, not just the current one — covering office costs, accommodation, travel, and bought-in/temporary staffing. 1 claim on file weren’t paid out (rejected, withdrawn, or otherwise not approved). This does not include Jen Craft’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.

Staffing — £160,643.64 (7 claims)

No Early Day Motions on file as tabled by Jen Craft — this only covers motions tabled within Hear, Hear’s current tracking window (see Early Day Motions), not necessarily Jen Craft’s full record.

All-Party Parliamentary Groups

Jen Craft is a listed officer of 3 All-Party Parliamentary Groups on file. See APPGs for the full register and the biggest funders overall.

All-Party Parliamentary Group on British Sign Language — Chair & Registered Contact
Declared funding: British Deaf Association (£1,501-3,000).
All-Party Parliamentary Group on Learning Disability — Chair & Registered Contact
Declared funding: Royal Mencap Society (£9,001-10,500).
Who funds these groups

Biggest declared funder across these groups: Royal Mencap Society — about £9,750.50 across 1 group (All-Party Parliamentary Group on Learning Disability).

Royal Mencap Society — about £9,750.50, 1 group
British Deaf Association — about £2,250.50, 1 group

Read this carefully: funding is declared by the group (often to pay for a secretariat that runs it), not paid to Jen Craft personally, and declaring it is a legal requirement rather than a sign of wrongdoing. This only covers groups Jen Craft 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.
