Prince and Princess Michael of Kent have to pay rent from today

"From today, Prince and Princess Michael of Kent will have to meet the £120,000-a-year rent on their Kensington Palace apartment out of their own pockets."

I welcome this but I call on the Government to make further reforms during 2010:

(1) ensuring a clear split between the public and private expenditure of the Royal Family.
(2) making the publicly funded bodies subject to the Freedom of Information Act
(3) allowing the National Audit Office to audit the publicly funded bodies
(4) reducing Civil List payments by 20%

It is so funny. Prince and Princess will have to meet the £120,000-a-year rent on their Kensington Palace apartment out of their own pockets, really?
