Elected Members have to do so. We are continuously told that in this technological age, one can work from home, on the plane, a train or a bus. Nevertheless, we have to be chained to the kennel like puppies. One must account for allowances through vouching. I know the Minister is enthusiastic about this and it was all fine for him when he went about extinguishing the leaders' allowance. That concerns Independent Members in both Houses. They cover a wider range and they have extra work.
