The information provided may be only a proportion of total expenses potentially attributable to each individual. The figures shown relate to expenses for directly claimed costs where the individual has submitted a claim via our travel and subsistence system or has expense payments made through their salary. The amounts shown do not include expenses, which in some cases, could be the bulk of costs associated with travel (such as rail and air fares), as these are normally paid using a Government Procurement Card, the Government's credit card. To compile such information relating to expenses from this source would incur disproportionate cost.
