ok, but here is the kicker I think.  When this policy was written expenses
for gas, commerical transportation fares and rental were probably a whole
lot lower in price.  So here is my question, has the financial policy taken
into account for inflation and if not, WHY? Things are going to only get
more expensive as time goes on, and if these items are not taken into
account then the Crowns will be spending more and more of their own money,
without any hope of reimbursement on the basic items.  Can someone please
let us know what steps are being taken to correct this action and if they
can't why not?

costs of travel for each Royal couple in turn).

4.3.2.1   A Travel Fund shall be established to partially defray the costs
associated with travel to official Society functions. Each Travel Fund shall
be
opened with a balance of $700 from General Funds as soon as the Coronet has
been chosen. Each fund will be available for donations and disbursements for
the
entire duration of the couple's reign, and will not exceed 30 days after the
end of the reign.
4.3.2.2   Only the following expenses may be reimbursed from the Travel
Fund:
gas, event fees, lodging, commercial transportation fares, and rentals.
