No written questions on file for Sir Julian Lewis yet — this only covers what Hear, Hear has fetched so far (see Written questions), not necessarily every question Sir Julian Lewis has ever tabled.

Business costs (IPSA)

£222,780.34 paid out to or for Sir Julian Lewis across 65 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 Sir Julian Lewis’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.

Disability Rights UK — about £8,250.50, 1 group
Publishers Association — about £5,250.50, 1 group
Institute for Outdoor Learning — 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 Sir Julian Lewis personally, and declaring it is a legal requirement rather than a sign of wrongdoing. This only covers groups Sir Julian Lewis 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.
