A parliamentary watchdog has confirmed it's investigating allegations about the DUP's Ian Paisley.
The Daily Telegraph made claims about overseas trips on it's front page last Friday.
The North Antrim MP referred himself to the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards.
He's denied the allegations - which he describes as "defamatory" and "devoid of fact or logic".
The watchdog says Mr Paisley is being investigated for an "alleged breach of paragraph 13 of the Code of Conduct".
That paragraph outlines that: "Members shall fulfil conscientiously the requirements of the House in respect of the registration of interests in the Register of Members' Financial Interests.
"They shall always be open and frank in drawing attention to any relevant interest in any proceeding of the House or its committees, and in any communications with ministers, members, public officials or public office holders."
