Business costs (IPSA)
£200,674.66 paid out to or for Jenny Riddell-Carpenter across 308 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 Jenny Riddell-Carpenter’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 Jenny Riddell-Carpenter — this only covers motions tabled within Hear, Hear’s current tracking window (see Early Day Motions), not necessarily Jenny Riddell-Carpenter’s full record.
