SPEAKER Bronwyn Bishop cost taxpayers $811,857 in expenses last year.
The hefty travel bill for the member for the Northern Beaches electorate of Mackellar does not include two extra charter flights to Young for another fundraiser — just days after her $5227 Geelong helicopter trip — and Nowra for two seniors forums

It has also been revealed Mrs Bishop’s trip to Young was just five days after she racked up $5227 for an 80km luxury helicopter trip between Melbourne and Geelong for a party fundraiser.
It can be revealed that in 2014 Mrs Bishop claimed;
●$309,581.99 in overseas trips
●$47,086.14 in domestic trips
●$32,471.12 in limousine travel
●$350,909.63 in office costs

The Department of Finance did not declare her two extra charter flights because they were close to the reporting deadline last year and will be included in the next set of expense claims to be released at the end of the year.
