Administrative / biographical background

The Compliance Officer for the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Compliance Officer for IPSA) is an independent statutory office holder. The post was established by the Parliamentary Standards Act 2009 (as amended by the Constitutional Reform and Governance Act 2010).

The Compliance Officer's remit is defined in statute and is to: conduct an investigation if he has reason to believe that an MP may have been paid an amount under the MPs' Scheme of Business Costs and Expenses (the Scheme) that should not have been allowed; and at the request of an MP, to review a decision by IPSA to refuse reimbursement for an expense claim, in whole or in part.

The Compliance Officer for IPSA reports to, but is not directed by, IPSA's Board and is wholly independent of IPSA's Executive Branch. Funding for the Compliance Officer to carry out his duties is provided by IPSA, in accordance with the Act.
