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 Victoria Collins avoided it. Click a bill for Parliament’s own page.

Business costs (IPSA)

£226,888.39 paid out to or for Victoria Collins across 245 claims — combining every financial year on file, not just the current one — covering office costs, accommodation, travel, and bought-in/temporary staffing.

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

All-Party Parliamentary Groups

Victoria Collins is a listed officer of 1 All-Party Parliamentary Group on file. See APPGs for the full register and the biggest funders overall.

All-Party Parliamentary Group for Entrepreneurship — Officer
Declared funding: The Entrepreneurs Network (£4,501-6,000).
Who funds these groups

Biggest declared funder across these groups: The Entrepreneurs Network — about £5,250.50 across 1 group (All-Party Parliamentary Group for Entrepreneurship).

The Entrepreneurs Network — about £5,250.50, 1 group

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