Expenses
The details of the total sums claimed in expenses by the members of Executive Board (EB) are available to download as pdf documents below. The information is extracted from the University’s electronic expenses system. For each claim made by individuals the total expenses by category is given along with the total expenses claimed over the period. Some of the claims are for multiple journeys and this is highlighted on the pdf documents.
It is important to note that some of the travel expenses claimed by the members of Executive Board may be externally funded by third party organisations and the costs of the trips are reimbursed by them after the event.
The purpose of the electronic expenses system is a financial one. It is:
- to monitor/report on levels of expenditure for various categories of expenses, not their details
The electronic expenses system does not record the full details associated with each claim. For example:
- whether the mode of transport was first or standard class
- the reason for the journey or the name of the hotel, is not recorded on the system
In addition to their core role, each member of Executive Board has a different portfolio of recurrent and project responsibilities. Some members of Executive Board have to travel more extensively than others, this is due to:
- the nature of the core role
- the portfolio and external responsibilities

Purchasing card spend
The details of the purchasing card transactions made by the members of Executive Board (EB) are available to download as pdf documents below. The information is extracted from the Barclaycard system. Each purchase made by individuals is detailed by date and merchant. The Barclaycard system does not record the full details associated with each transaction. For example:
- the reason for the journey
- the number of attendees dining at a restaurant
- exact purchases made in a shop
It is important to note that some of the expenditure incurred by the members of Executive Board may be externally funded by third party organisations and the costs are reimbursed by them after the event.
In addition to their core role, each member of Executive Board has a different portfolio of recurrent and project responsibilities. The nature of the core role combined with the Executive Board portfolio and external responsibilities means that some members of Executive Board incur greater expenditure than others.
