Politicians’ Expenses

In view of all the horrors being revealed by the Daily Telegraph’s investigation into MP’s expenses, we thought it would be interesting to ask about the expenses of local politicians. We got a very full, open and helpful response from both the County and South Cambs  Councils. Both told us where to find expenses data – and if you want to take a look, these links will take you to the latest 2007/8 published figures for the County Council (go to page 67 of the accounts) and South Cambridgeshire District Council. We will update this later when the 2008/9 expenses are published.
