(This note is not part of the Order)
Each financial year the Sovereign Grant is paid by the Treasury to His Majesty. The amount of Sovereign Grant is determined in accordance with a formula in section 6(1) of the Sovereign Grant Act 2011 (c. 15) and is linked to the profits of the Crown Estate.
This Order amends section 6(1) of the Sovereign Grant Act 2011 so that the percentage specified in Step 1 of that section (being a percentage of the profits of the Crown Estate) is changed from 25% to 12%.
