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.

How often Sarah Smith voted the same way as most of the Labour party, across every recorded division. Parliament doesn’t publish whether a vote was officially whipped, so this is our best estimate from the public record — not a confirmed fact.
Government & opposition roles
No government or shadow front-bench post on file for Sarah Smith — 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 Sarah Smith yet — this only covers what Hear, Hear has fetched so far (see Written questions), not necessarily every question Sarah Smith has ever tabled.
Business costs (IPSA)
£235,295.89 paid out to or for Sarah Smith across 274 claims — combining every financial year on file, not just the current one — covering office costs, accommodation, travel, and bought-in/temporary staffing. 2 claims on file weren’t paid out (rejected, withdrawn, or otherwise not approved). This does not include Sarah Smith’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 Sarah Smith — this only covers motions tabled within Hear, Hear’s current tracking window (see Early Day Motions), not necessarily Sarah Smith’s full record.
All-Party Parliamentary Groups
Sarah Smith isn’t listed as an officer of any All-Party Parliamentary Group on file — true of most MPs. See APPGs for the full register.
