Calls for inquiry into ‘all royal finances’ after Andrew subletting revelations

MPs urged to push for ‘radical reform’ after NAO finds former prince made income from Royal Lodge properties

Campaigners have called for radical reform and a public inquiry into “all royal finances” after revelations that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor received an undisclosed private income from subletting three cottages on his Royal Lodge estate while paying a “peppercorn rent”.

A report from the public spending watchdog, the National Audit Office (NAO), found the rental income went to the former Duke of York, but said: “We do not know what rent was charged.”
