The focus of this report is Lord Paul's use of the Members' Reimbursement Scheme from late 2005 onwards. The Sub-committee on Lords' Conduct considered whether in this period Lord Paul had correctly designated two successive properties in Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire as his main residence, and made claims for overnight subsistence and travel in relation to them. Lord Paul has acknowledged that he wrongly designated the Oxfordshire property as his main residence, has apologised and repaid a sum of money. Lord Paul maintained that he acted in good faith in making the designation and claims, but the Sub-committee disagreed. Lord Paul appealed to the full Committee on this point. The Committee, while not finding actions that were dishonest or in bad faith, conclude that: designation of the Oxfordshire property was a deliberate misrepresentation of his domestic arrangements; his actions were unreasonable, and demonstrated gross irresponsibility and negligence. The Committee recommends that Lord Paul be suspended from the service of the House for four months.
