Proceeding contribution from Andrew Pelling (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 November 2006. It occurred during Debate on Legislative Process.

It was in fact my predecessor who spent that amount. Does not the concrete proposal that has been made offer us the opportunity to put a cap on that type of expenditure? It is too easy to dismiss the proposed allowance as extra money for Members of Parliament, when it is actually an initiative that would put a cap on irresponsible behaviour.
