Crisis: Spain, Rajoy also cuts King Juan Carlos' cheque by 2 - Spain - ANSAMed.it

Its not much compared to what other institutions have to take in, especially when keeping in mind that the Palma couple wont do any activities until further notice and that Elena's activities have been reduced to a minimum.

The Royal Family has a very small budget, compared with other institutions,so the cut is proportional. The ministries have budgets of more than one billion euros, the House of the King only receives 8 million euros, so the comparison is quite absurd.

That is not much money to be spread over those three segments of the household.

El Rey le baja el sueldo a la Reina pero recupera su paga extra

The budget of casareal falls below 8 million euros for the first time, down 4% = 7,933,710 euros in 2013, but that amount does not include travel, which pays the Ministry of Education, or vehicles, which are borne by the Treasury, or Security (Ministry of Interior), or maintainance of Zarzuela etc (National Heritage). With all this, the King has decided to lower the salary of the Queen, Elena and Letizia (€ 55,000 less this year), reducing the allowance of these three women to 260,000 euros (since last year, the Infanta Cristina do not receive this allowance because she did not participate in official events, the same applies, for now, this year).

The wages of the Prince and King remain unchanged this year. The monarch receives 290.0752 euros, of which 140,519 euros directly and the rest for representation expenses. Meanwhile, the Prince will have a salary of 145,376 euros.

The fleet of official vehicles will be reduced: The King will not be able to enjoy the long line of 72 cars, 27 vehicles are destined to leave the garage.
