Proceeding contribution from Lord O'Neill of Clackmannan (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 14 December 2009. It occurred during Debate on House of Lords: Financial Support for Members.
House of Lords: Financial Support for Members
The noble and learned Lord had difficulty in finding another example of people in paid employment who receive tax-free travel expenses. I do not think that he needs to look any further than the other place where Members of Parliament who live within 20 miles of their constituency are entitled to claim the costs of travel both within their constituency and their homes, and between their homes and London. There is a precedent and it is in this building.
