From 10 to 12 September 2011 I visited Barcelona to attend the National Day of Catalonia and give a presentation in the town of Riudecanyes. The costs of flights to and from Barcelona (£216.54) were met by the Provincial Council of Riudecanyes (the local authority of Riudecanyes of Town Hall Carrer Dimecres, 9 43771, Riudecanyes) and accommodation costs (£200) were met by Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya (a political party in Catalonia and currently the opposition in the Catalonian Parliament of National Office of ERC Calàbria, 166 08015, Barcelona).

Heritable property
Until September 2019 I owned a house in the East Renfrewshire Council area with a market value of between £100,001 and £150,000. Until 15 December 2017 I used this property as a residential home. From 1 May 2018 until September 2019 I received a gross rental income of between £5,001 and £10,000 a year. I did not make a profit from this income as it will covered the running costs of the property. [Registered 21 April 2018, Amended 10 May 2018, Amended 12 November 2019, Ceased 12 November 2019]
