Written questions to government
No written questions on file for Uma Kumaran yet — this only covers what Hear, Hear has fetched so far (see Written questions), not necessarily every question Uma Kumaran has ever tabled.
Business costs (IPSA)
£223,206.89 paid out to or for Uma Kumaran across 225 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 Uma Kumaran’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 Uma Kumaran — this only covers motions tabled within Hear, Hear’s current tracking window (see Early Day Motions), not necessarily Uma Kumaran’s full record.
All-Party Parliamentary Groups
Uma Kumaran is a listed officer of 3 All-Party Parliamentary Groups on file. See APPGs for the full register and the biggest funders overall.
Biggest declared funder across these groups: PRASEG Ltd — about £44,250.50 across 1 group (All-Party Parliamentary Group for Renewable and Sustainable Energy).
Read this carefully: funding is declared by the group (often to pay for a secretariat that runs it), not paid to Uma Kumaran personally, and declaring it is a legal requirement rather than a sign of wrongdoing. This only covers groups Uma Kumaran 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.
