Tory MP speaks to police about expenses
Conservative MP Chris Davies has been interviewed by police under caution about an allegation of fraudulent expense claims.
The Brecon and Radnorshire MP spoke voluntarily to the Met police on Tuesday, after being referred by the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority over a claim for pictures for his constituency office.
Mr Davies, 50, who entered Parliament in 2015, has previously said that he made an “honest mistake” in the way he submitted the claim but insisted he did nothing wrong. It is understood he is accused of manually creating two invoices for £450 and £250 rather than submitting the full £700 claim by computer. He previously said he repaid the £450 which was charged to a fund for new MPS to set up offices.
