I can confirm that IPSA does not hold copies of receipts or other documents specific to the claims cited in your request.

Working from home allowance

The homeworking allowance is payable to MPs’ staff members who have been working from home as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

The allowance covers homeworking costs such as telephone, internet, electricity and gas usage.

These amounts were paid directly to relevant staff members through the payroll, with costs allocated to the relevant MPs’ office costs budget.
