Every Commons division on file for Chris Ward — amendments, motions and opposition-day votes as well as bills. Took part in 426 of 590 (72%).
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.

Business costs (IPSA)
£224,702.98 paid out to or for Chris Ward across 216 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 Chris Ward’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 Chris Ward — this only covers motions tabled within Hear, Hear’s current tracking window (see Early Day Motions), not necessarily Chris Ward’s full record.

Chris Ward isn’t listed as an officer of any All-Party Parliamentary Group on file — true of most MPs. See APPGs for the full register.
