THERESA Villiers was the second of Barnet's three MPs to announce a clean bill of health today following an independent review into parliamentary expenses.

The Conservative MP for Chipping Barnet and shadow transport secretary is officially in the clear after a rigorous examination of her expense claims from 2004 to 2009 by former civil servant Sir Thomas Legg.

Sir Thomas was given the job of identifying the Additional Costs Allowances that should not have been claimed during this period and to recommend repayments.

Like Labour MP Andrew Dismore, Ms Villiers has not been asked to pay back any money to taxpayers.

She voiced support for the "clean-up" of the expenses system to restore faith in politicians among the electorate.

"Important steps have been taken towards reforming the system of MPs' expenses," she said.

"I am now, for example, publishing expense claims online as they are made, along with all my Conservative colleagues on the opposition front bench.

"However, much more work needs to be done to restore trust in politics. The public are right to demand major clean-up."

Speaking of the pending report into the expenses system by Sir Christopher Kelly, chairman of the Committee on Standards in Public Life, Ms Villiers added: "I hope the Kelly Review will provide the foundation for a complete overhaul of the system."

Rudi Vis, Labour MP for Finchley and Golders Green, is yet to reveal whether he has been asked to repay any money.

Both Prime Minister Gordon Brown and Tory leader David Cameron have instructed their MPs to accept the Legg recommendations.
