8:56Now PlayingPat McFadden says he stuck to the rules as they were written at the time following reports he claimed rental expenses on a home when he owned the property nextdoor.
The Daily Telegraph said the MP claimed over £40,000 from the public purse for rent on a constituency home around 12 years ago.
Mr McFadden told Kay Burley: "I no longer own that property. It was sold six or seven years ago at a loss, which I covered personally.
"I've always complied with the IPSA [Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority] rules. I complied with them throughout. IPSA is the authority that governs all this for MPs.
"So, I've always stuck to the rules, and they have never said there's anything wrong with my living arrangements."
