Employee subsistence costs

If I am paid a flat rate of £60 per night by my employer for when I stay away (this is fully taxed), can I claim back the actual costs I have incurred on my tax return? Also if I am not paid anything for meals by my employer, can I claim the flat rate of £25 per 24 hours on my tax return to cover food costs I incur while away? Thank you.

Hi Lisa Gray,
Please have a look at the information here:

Please complete the claim checker.
If any expenses are allowable, you can claim them online.
Thank you. 

Can you confirm whether this travel of of x hours is the actual in the car travel time or the time spent away from home/office. It is not clear in any of the documentation I have read.
