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. Click a division title for Parliament’s own page for it.

No government or shadow front-bench post on file for Brian Mathew — 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 Brian Mathew yet — this only covers what Hear, Hear has fetched so far (see Written questions), not necessarily every question Brian Mathew has ever tabled.

Business costs (IPSA)

£169,695.35 paid out to or for Brian Mathew across 166 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 Brian Mathew’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 — £117,592.59 (9 claims)

Office Costs — £28,794.66 (135 claims)

Accommodation — £16,040.00 (9 claims)

Brian Mathew has tabled 2 Early Day Motions on file (as primary sponsor), drawing 19 sponsor signatures in total across them.

All-Party Parliamentary Groups

Brian Mathew 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 for Post Offices — Chair & Registered Contact

Declared funding: National Federation of Sub Postmasters (£1,501-3,000).

All-Party Parliamentary Group on Latvia — Officer

No declared funding on file.

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene All-Party Parliamentary Group — Vice Chair

Declared funding: WaterAid (£7,501-9,000).

Who funds these groups

Biggest declared funder across these groups: WaterAid — about £8,250.50 across 1 group (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene All-Party Parliamentary Group).

WaterAid — about £8,250.50, 1 group

National Federation of Sub Postmasters — 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 Brian Mathew personally, and declaring it is a legal requirement rather than a sign of wrongdoing. This only covers groups Brian Mathew 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.
