David lays down the rules on MEPs Expenses

David Cameron yesterday set out proposals to "deep clean" the system of MEPs’ expenses.From September, all Conservative MEPs will follow a Code of Conduct similar to the one already in place for Conservative MPs: - Expenses must be published in 'Right to know' forms- The use of service companies will be outlawed- Details of any family members employed must be publishedDavid promised these measures would introduce "more detail, more transparency and more honesty" to the system of expenses, and urged other political parties to follow suit.
