News of the potential payrise came as Keeper of the Privy Purse Sir Alan Reid revealed how the royals have spent the £40.1 million they were given in April 2015 - amounting to 62p per person per year in Britain.

王室在2015年4月获得4010万英镑,相当于英国国民为此每年人均付出62便士.女王可能加薪一事传来的同时,王室司库负责人艾伦•里德爵士透露了这笔收入的花销情况.

He also stressed they have added to this by raising £13.9 million of their own money including through renovating and renting out apartments.

爵士还强调,王室除此收入外,还有1390万英镑的私人收入,包括整修和出租房屋的所得.

Last year it was reported they were renting one in St James's Palace thought to bring in nearly £250,000 per year.

报道称,王室去年出租了圣詹姆斯宫的一套房子,据认为带来了近25万英镑的年收入.

Prince Charles also revealed that his income from the Duchy of Cornwall estate rose to more than £20 million for the first time to £20.467 million up from £19.845 million the previous year.

查尔斯王子也透露,他从康沃尔公爵领地获得的收入从前一年的1984.5万英镑上升到2046.7万英镑,首次超过了2000万英镑.

Expenditure on the area of his accounts that funds Prince William, Kate and Harry was also up 9.5% from £2.965 million to £3.249 million, although officials would not say how much of the increase was down to the three young royals or itemise how that money was spent.

查尔斯王子账户上用于威廉夫妇和哈里王子的支出也从296.5万英镑上升到324.9万英镑,上涨9.5%.不过官方不会说明上涨的支出有多少是因为这三位年轻的王室成员,也不会详细列明钱是怎么花出去的.

The bill for royal travel was down to £4 million from £5.1 million the previous year, but there were still some eye-watering travel costs billed to the taxpayer including a £94,409 charter plane for Prince Charles and Camilla's tour of the Balkans in March.

王室旅行开支从前一年的510万英镑降至400万,但纳税人依然要承担一些巨额旅行开销,比如查尔斯王子和卡米拉三月访问巴尔干半岛时所花的9万4409英镑包机费.
