Question

To ask the hon. Member for Mole Valley representing the House of Commons Commission, pursuant to the Answer of 8 June 2015 to Question 955, what information the Commission holds on the proportion of hon. Members who travelled from their constituency address to the House in (a) less than one, (b) more than one but less than two, (c) more than two but less than three, (d) more than three but less than four and (e) more than four hours in 2009.

The House no longer retains specific information about Members’ constituency addresses in 2009, nor has it calculated the journey times from those addresses to the House. However, details of Members’ travel costs by category in that year are available online at mpsexpenses.parliament.uk. In addition there is information about distances of constituencies from Westminster in 2008 in the Members Estimate Committee’s Third Report of 2007–08 (HC 578-II)
