QuoteQueen Elizabeth the coming months to take an important decision. Buckingham Palace is in urgent need of renovation and maintenance. Since taking office, the palace in London has not been fully addressed in 1952. In 2009 daughter Princess Anne nearly struck by falling rocks. Question is how to tackle the necessary refurbishment.

The renovation is provisionally estimated at 190 million euros. Plumbing and electricity need to be replaced, removed asbestos and official venues - the State Rooms - can also use a coat of paint. All that can actually be achieved when the queen, her family and staff Buckingham Palace vacate in its entirety.
