Скачать или смотреть Queen Camilla Stripped £359K Annual State Allowance Her Predecessor Received

The National Audit Office (NAO), the UK's independent public spending watchdog, reported on July 14th that Queen Camilla will not receive the £359,000 annual allowance previously granted to her predecessor, Prince Philip. This allowance, allocated by Parliament, was specifically for the Queen's consort. However, as King Charles's wife, Camilla's official duties and expenses will be covered by the Sovereign Grant.

This change reflects a shift in royal funding. The Sovereign Grant, funded by a percentage of the Crown Estate's profits, has replaced older, more fragmented funding mechanisms like the Civil List. This centralized system now finances the various activities and expenses of the royal family, eliminating the need for separate allowances for individual members. The decision to not grant Camilla a separate allowance is therefore a consequence of this streamlined funding model, not a reflection of any change in her status or duties. The NAO report highlights a move towards greater transparency and efficiency in managing public funds allocated to the monarchy. In essence, the funding for Camilla's royal duties is now integrated into the broader financial framework supporting the monarchy.
