英女王将加薪 八一八王室成员薪水

The Queen to get 6.5% payrise - but how much will she be paid in total?

The Queen is in line for a 6.5% payrise and could net a cool £45.6 million from the taxpayer next year if the way she is funded stays the same.

英国女王可能将加薪6.5%.如果拨款方案不变,明年她将从纳税人手中获得4560万英镑.

Figures released show a total profit of £304.1 million for the Crown Estate.

公布的数据显示,英国皇家财产局的总利润为3亿410万英镑.

If the Queen receives her Sovereign Grant calculated at the customary 15% of that she would be handed £45.6 million from the Treasury in April 2017, an increase of £2.8 million up from £42.8 million this year.

皇家财产局利润的15%通常作为君王拨款.若以此计算,2017年4月,女王将从财政部获得4560万英镑,比今年的4280万英镑高出280万英镑.

However, the formula for the Sovereign Grant is being reviewed this year by The Prime Minister, Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Keeper of the Privy Purse who will potentially change the way it is calculated to less than 15% of Crown Estate profits.

但今年,君王拨款的方案正交由首相、财政大臣和王室司库负责人重新审议,计算方式可能被改变,拨款将少于皇家财产局利润的15%.

This could mean her payrise is smaller, but she will still be in line for a bumper sum as rules state she cannot get less than any previous year.

But a source said about the negotiations lately in light of Brexit turmoil: "This is hardly the moment where we are going to finalise a review of the Sovereign Grant."

然而鉴于英国退欧的混乱局势,有消息透露了日前的磋商情况:"当前不是我们敲定君王拨款的时候."
