A couple of articles: En million kroner mere til de kongelige - De Kongelige
The government has granted the DRF a pay rise.
Apart from that the the DRF apanage is regulated twice a year so that it follows the comparative rise in salary among state employees.
QMII will be granted 700.000 DKK more next year. Of these 100.000 will go to Prince Henrik.
As QMII will celebrate her 40th jubilee in 2012, the expences will of course be higher than usual.
Frederik will get 200.000 DKK more next year, of which a certain percentage will go to Mary. (Roughly 10 %).
Joachim will recieve 100.000 DKK more. He can probably use them....
Everybody else will not get a payrise..
However a few weeks ago, a survey was published in which people had been asked whether they think the DRF is too expensive.
Hver tredje dansker: Kongehuset er for dyrt - Royale - BT.dk
The combined costs for the DRF, everything included, except PET protection, has officially been calculated to 342.2 million DKK.
34 % belive the DRF is too expensive.
47 % find it appropriate.
2 % believe it's not enough
and the rest must be undecided.
In fact I'm surprised it's only 34 % who think it's too much.
Because this is the kind of surveys where you with guarantee can be certain to get a high percentage of negative replies.
It's like asking: Do you think the politicians spend too much money?
No matter what, you can be sure a lot of people will tick the "yes-box".
