Committee of British Parliament adopted a decision to double compensation, without confirmation of the cost of meals and lodging of deputies who are working in travel, writing July 28, The Daily Telegraph . Whereas previously the maximum amount of such compensation was 400 pounds a month, but now it had risen to 775.

As we found out the publication, the decision to increase the compensation was made shortly before the House of Commons has gone on vacation, and does not advertise. In order to get money owed, to a deputy is only to say how many days in the year he spent away from home – to confirm this information does not need to.

According to the publication, the fact that MPs had increased compensation without public debate, without even announcing it, against the backdrop of the recent scandal with the parliamentary expenses may cause dissatisfaction of taxpayers. The journalists of The Daily Telegraph also suggest that the deputies are trying to make their offset costs less transparent by increasing the compensation that you do not want to acknowledge.

In May 2009, The Daily Telegraph published a story that the members of the House of Commons abused their right to recover some costs from the taxpayers. A few followed the first article submissions provided examples of what MPs spend their money: they repaired toilets, buying household appliances, food for pets, and pay for repairs of their houses and buy new.

scandal led to many resignations in the House of Commons, and the government. Once the facts of the excessive spending of British MPs were made public, many of them have publicly pledged to ensure that in future this does not happen again. According to the newspaper, such a promise, and gave members of the parliamentary committee, an increase of compensation.

information about increasing the size of compensation to journalists learned from the documents posted on the site of the British Parliament. Comment of Representatives House of Commons refused.
