And that the same rules for Bon Vanctia apply to the duchies like the do to the rest of the country. No one pays inheritance tax on Bona Vacantia unless there is someone clamining it and it is over a certain vaule.

I think you mean that inheritances take a while to be transferred. I doubt that the same rules do apply, for example I don't imagine Charles Windsor pays inheritance tax on Bona Vacantia, certainly there's no record if he does.<br /><br />An Helghyer, thanks for the kind comments. You are definitely right about newspaper coverage .https://www.blogger.com/profile/09995243127753821611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704781587266395905.post-1195940739141414422012-10-04T21:47:58.896+01:002012-10-04T21:47:58.896+01:00It is his after all, it takes 12 years for the est...It is his after all, it takes 12 years for the estates and money to become the duchies. Same rules apply to them as the rest of the country.

It's interesting to note that groups like Republic are getting their knickers in a knot about DoC revenues being given back to the country (England), when it should be going back to Kernow only. As we see from your investigation, it's not really coming back in any decent amounts at all! It is also interesting that people are waking up to Bona Vacantia andAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704781587266395905.post-67022641285107639712012-10-04T17:15:40.588+01:002012-10-04T17:15:40.588+01:00Hi Rob, as I understood it the proceeds that are g...Hi Rob, as I understood it the proceeds that are given to the Duchy through Bona Vacantia are retained by the Duchy as capital. Then the interest earned from these holdings is passed on to the benevolent fund. <br /><br />This might explain the difference? This is because the Duke is not supposed to use the capital of the Duchy which is always then passed on to subsequent Dukes. <br /><br />Stephen Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02642285715014538976noreply@blogger.com
