    Hi I have just been advised by my company that as per civil service rules the following is now applicable

    If I leave from my home in Connemara to go to a customer in Galway I can claim from my home only as its the shortest distance travelled as my plant is in the Midlands

    However if I leave from the Midlands factory to go to Galway (117km ea way) i must still put down I left from home (70km each way) this seems so wrong. I can understand if I left from the plant and then went home i would put in 117 + 70 but effectively this means if I leave from the plant and return to the plant i travel 234 km in my car but can only expense 140km

    They also advise if I have to go to Cork I must start my journey from the plant not my home when calculating milage which was how we used to calculate all trips prevously you left and returned to the plant for calculation purposes

    Is this them misinterpreting the rule

    "For business travel, the distance in kilometres is calculated by the lower of either:

    the distance between your employee's home and the temporary place of work

    the distance between your employee's normal place of work and the temporary place of work."

    😐
