She was reported〔(MPs' expenses: Tax officials to investigate capital gains evasion. ) ''The Guardian'' 10 May 2009.〕 to be claiming £22,000 a year in expenses by saying that her mother's bungalow in Yorkshire is her main home, amounting to around £130,000 since 2002. She was later cleared of any wrongdoing by Michael Pownall, the Clerk of Parliaments, after it was determined that she spent much of her time there while caring for her mother.
