Jacqui Smith - Standards and Privileges Committee Contents



38.  LETTER TO THE COMMISSIONER FROM MR ROBERT WATERHOUSE, 30 MARCH 2009

Thank you for the acknowledgement which [the Registrar of Members' Financial Interests] sent me on 26 February regarding the expenses of the Rt Hon Jacqui Smith MP.

I am sure you will have seen the latest news in the media concerning her expenses, this time involving the charging of allegedly pornographic films to the taxpayer (Daily Mail March 2009, front page, first paragraph).

I would like to request that you investigate these latest allegations, and that you also consider making a thorough examination of her other claims during her employment in this Parliament, so that the taxpayer can be reassured that this was— as is suggested—an isolated case.

30 March 2009
