That wasn't the point. The point was that the official approval comes from the monarch and he isn't monarch.

If he not not approve, but the Queen did, there would be no legal impediments.

Prince Harry may still get a chance to see action

Prince Harry could still fulfil his dream of serving in a war zone after Army chiefs drew up plans for him to serve with UK forces in Afghanistan this summer.

Prince Harry may still get a chance to see action | the Daily Mail

The Ginger Pimpernel: Prince Harry Is Everywhere

IS that really Prince Harry on his own in a Bristol nightclub? (Pic: The Spine)

The Sun thinks so, inviting readers to observe “Harry no-mates” as he takes in the sights and smells of Bristol’s Syndicate nightspot.

Prince Harry the movie?

Prince Harry's life story is to be turned into a Bond-style action film, according to reports.

However, how I interpret what chrissy57 said, "My understanding of the RMA is that they need the Queen's approval until they are over 25. Once over 25 they can notify Parliament of the desire to marry and, if, after one year, neither house raises any objection they can marry without the monarch's approval. They don't need to ask Parliament if they have the monarch's approval. The monarch, having given that approval, will notify the Privy Council. Charles, could in theory, not approve of a marriage of one of his sons during the reign of the present monarch."
that if Charles doesn't approve of the marriage, the sons would have to go to Parliament, if they are over 25, behind their father's back? Or, through the monarch?

Probably so simple explanation, but I still don't get it.

Anyway, what if both the monarch and Prince Charles doesn't want a marriage and the Prince's are over 25, will asking Parliament still be legal to do EVEN if both the reigning monarch and prince decides they are against the marriage?

If the Queen agrees and Charles says no, Harry or William can still get married.
If the Queen says no, they have to wait until they are 25 and ask parliament, both houses must agree to the marriage.
While the Queen is alive and the monarch, Charles has no legal say in the matter.

Just one more question, what will happen if the Parliament says no but the Queen gives her permission?

If the Queen has said yes, parliament wouldn't even be asked.

So his only option would be to get the Queen drunk enough to sign on the dotted line!

Now everything seems to be clear, to me at least.
Thanks for claryfing Skdragon!

The Princes will have many opportunities then - some time around Christmas would be the best.

Not even if Harry were under 25.

Or maybe around Ascot time, especially if one of HM's horses has just won.

It is only if the Queen is against the marriage, that Harry would have to wait until he is 25 and ask for consent from both houses. So if he asked to get married now and the Queen said yes, parliament would not be asked.

I think all the technicalities would be fulfilled even before the announcement, and by the time the Palace issued such an announcement, the asking of the Queen and Parliament would be only for show. I think by the time anything reaches that stage, the asking of permission is just a formality.

No announcement would be made until the Queen consented or it was to be debated.

SUFFIELD -- Royalty touched down at CFB Suffield with the arrival of Prince Harry, the third in line to the British throne who is now training at the southern Alberta base for a tour of duty in war-torn Afghanistan

CANOE -- CNEWS - Canada: Prince Harry training in Alberta

"but London media have reported" - Oh it's official then!

Well, everything has a source. There is no reason for anyone to make it up that he is training there.

I wasn't commenting on whether Harry is somewhere or not, or the apparent source at the base, but on this statement:-
"but London media have reported an alternative plan was devised by army officials".

Oh right, on the supposedly alternative plan to send him to Afghanistan, as if that is much safer than Iraq!
