Info from the special meeting of the government:
HM the Queen does NOT want a national present, as is customary. She thinks that this is not appropriate in the present economic circumstances
A special commission under the direction of former (D66) minister and former AkzoNobel CEO Hans Wijers will organise the parties around event. A special commission chaired by the prime minister will organise the actual ceremonies.

Apart from the IOC membership, the new king will also lay down his UN functions. At the moment he is the chairman of the UNSGAB, a UN advisory board about water & sanitation.
