Proceeding contribution from Martin Salter (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 November 2006. It occurred during Debate on Legislative Process.

Legislative Process

May I chastise my hon. Friend, because he does not do himself or his argument any favours by referring to the allowances and budgets that we receive to pay our staff, and provide a service to our constituents, as expenses. Expenses are what journalists receive; budgets and allowances are what MPs receive to do the job of work that we are sent to Westminster to perform.
