Dear Mr Herd,
Freedom of Information Request F19-318
Thank you for your request for information as copied below. You have asked
for the costs of mortgages and rent paid “on behalf of serving MPs” since
the beginning of this parliamentary session.
This information is not held by the House of Commons.
Members may choose to claim back certain business and other expenses, but
these claims are made to the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority
(IPSA) and not the House. If you wish to contact IPSA to find out about
expenses claims for mortgages and rental payments, their contact details
can be found at: [1]http://www.theipsa.org.uk/.
Alternatively, you may wish to consider contacting any individual Members
that interest you to ask for the information you seek; their contact
details are available at:
[2]http://www.parliament.uk/mps-lords-and-o..., Members
of Parliament are not public authorities for the purposes of FOIA. This
means that they are not obliged to respond to requests made under the Act.
Lastly, it may interest you to know that a register of Members’ financial
interests is maintained by the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards
and published here:

You may, if dissatisfied with the handling of your request, complain to
the House of Commons. Alternatively, if you are dissatisfied with the
outcome of your request you may ask the House of Commons to conduct an
internal review of any decision regarding your request. Complaints or
requests for internal review should be addressed to: Information Rights
and Information Security Service, Research & Information Team, House of
Commons, London SW1A 0AA or [4][House of Commons request email]. Please ensure
that you specify the full reasons for your complaint or internal review
along with any arguments or points that you wish to make.

at Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF,
