253. To ask the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform if the newly vouched leader's allowance continues to be claimed by Independent Deputies and Senators, if so, the amount that has been claimed up to December 2014, by each Member under both vouched and unvouched conditions since the general election in 2011, if any Independent Deputy has ever returned any of the allowance or if they have all claimed the maximum available every year; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I refer the Deputy to my reply to his previous question on this matter question 91 of 18 September 2014 (reference 34985/14). The total amounts paid to each qualifying independent member from 9 March 2011 to date are set out in the tables below. Michael Fitzmaurice TD, elected to Dáil Éireann in October of this year, has not yet claimed the allowance. I am not aware of any amounts that may have been returned by members.
