Written questions to government

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

Business costs (IPSA)

£264,292.71 paid out to or for Shockat Adam across 167 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 Shockat Adam’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.

By category

Staffing — £193,428.22 (37 claims)

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