The Returning Officer for Richmond Park will have six months from the day of the poll to submit his expenses claim, and so the final cost will not be known until this has been received, scrutinised and settled. The actual cost of delivering candidates’ mailings will also not be known until after the election.</p> answering member printed Baroness Chisholm of Owlpen question first answered 15/11/2016 14:05:42 answering member 4330 label Biography information for Baroness Chisholm of Owlpen
