MPs from Tayside and Fife claimed tens of thousands of pounds in expenses last year, new figures have revealed.
The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) revealed details of all claims made by MPs accepted or not.
However Prime Minister David Cameron has criticised the new system, which he claims is too expensive to run.
The leader of the House of Commons has also criticised IPSA for “impeding” MPs from doing their jobs.
The increased scrutiny appears to have limited the outrageous claims made previously.
Angus MP Mike Weir claimed £4719.54 in September and October last year, the most recent figures available. The bulk of these costs were in rent for accommodation in London and for his constituency office.
Dundee East MP Stewart Hosie claimed £4551.76 while Dundee West MP Jim McGovern claimed £2906.61. Again, the biggest costs for each MP were accommodation and office rentals.
Dunfermline West MP Thomas Docherty claimed £3744.10, including £1650 for rent and £851.88 to pay for a website.
Kirkcaldy MP Gordon Brown claimed just £185.88 over the two months for telephone line rental.RejectedGlenrothes MP Lindsay Roy claimed £6144.51 and was the only MP in Tayside and Fife to have a claim rejected, a £12 telephone bill that pre-dated the new IPSA system.
Sir Menzies Campbell, Liberal Democrat MP for North East Fife, claimed £1535 in expenses.
Perth and North Perthshire MP Pete Wishart claimed £5634.08 while Ochil and South Perthshire MP Gordon Banks claimed £5045.76.
Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg submitted claims totalling £14,451.33 for the period from May to October, including mortgage interest of £842.47 a month and regular council tax bills of £180.
Prime Minister David Cameron spent £2581.13 during the same period, the majority of which went on research by the Parliamentary Resources Unit (PRU).
Chancellor George Osborne claimed £582.62 between May and July, all for travel and administration costs.
All of Mr Cameron’s and Mr Osborne’s claims were previously published in December.
Sir George Young, leader of the House of Commons, said the system was “failing in many respects” to support the Commons, deters people from less affluent backgrounds from becoming MPs and puts “undue pressure” on the family lives of parliamentarians.ImprovementsIn a submission to the annual review of the new scheme, Sir George called for improvements to be agreed by April 1.
A spokesman for Mr Cameron said he does not believe the system is working properly.
He said, “You cannot have a system that costs £6 million a year to administer the expenses of 650 people.
“IPSA was set up quite rapidly following the expenses scandal. Clearly there are problems with the way it is working.
“The prime minister’s view is that we have got to deal with this.”
However, a spokesman for IPSA said Mr Cameron overestimated the cost of the new scheme.
“Saying IPSA costs £6 million a year to administer 650 MPs’ expenses it not accurate,” he said.
“IPSA’s costs in its first year were £6 million, but this includes a number of costs associated with setting up an organisation, such as IT, temporary staff and recruiting staff…
“Parliament has charged IPSA with the duty of being an independent regulator this means setting and governing the system and providing training to hundreds of MPs and thousands of their staff, not simply administering expenses.
“We have already made a public commitment that we will cost less next year.”
Ministers including Ed Davey, Ed Vaizey, Maria Miller and Peter Luff all had expense claims rejected.
