Under the Parliamentary Standards Act 2009, IPSA became responsible for creating a new system to pay MPs expenses and is now responsible for running and regulating that system. IPSA's operating costs in 2010-11 were £6.4 million, its staff is now reduced from 88 to around 60. Between May 2010 and March 2011, IPSA processed 134, 696 separate claim lines, paying out some £118 million. This report examines the value for money that IPSA has achieved. It concludes that whilst the new scheme is clearly preventing misuse of money, IPSA did not initially have sufficient regard to the impact its scheme was having on the ability of MPs to fulfil their duties. IPSA needs to accelerate streamlining of its own procedures and give greater priority to minimising costs necessarily falling to MPs

'Eye-popping analysis of politicians' finances... a ground-breaking study... a fascinating and important work.' Sunday Times 'Immaculately researched... A powerful reminder that reporters can serve the public good... Should make journalists proud - and may even help to make the world a better place' Peter Oborne, New Statesman Who do our politicians work for? The public, or big business? If you want to understand why British politics isn't working, the first place to start is here. Parliament Ltd reveals the financial interests that British politicians would rather you didn't hear about. From banks and private corporations, to lobbying and the arms trade, there are MPs making millions by moonlighting in second jobs. Where does their loyalty belong - to us or to their paymasters? Meanwhile - years after the expenses scandal - they are now claiming more than ever before. In his enthralling journey to the dark heart of British politics, Martin Williams exposes a hidden, shocking culture of greed and corruption.

No Expenses Spared is the fascinating account of the journalistic scoop that changed the face of British politics. It tells the story of one whistleblower and a small team of dedicated journalists who worked in secret to pore through more than a million expenses documents, braved the threat of legal action and political pressure to reveal the truth.

It gives MPs a clear budget limit for staff, but one that allows flexibility so as to reflect the differences in their ways of work. This Review also explored the separation between parliamentary functions and party political activities
