Proceeding contribution from Jack Straw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 16 June 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority.

Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority

From what I have seen, IPSA itself recognises that there are a number of anomalies in the system—although I do not remotely speak for IPSA. Those include the anomaly that if a colleague lives in a second home that they now own they cannot make a claim in respect of that second home. They could, however, rent the home out to a third party and then use an IPSA allowance to rent further accommodation. That is plainly irrational and I gather that it is going to be changed.
