Future changes
Naturally, many things change when the government changes. Currently, Queen Elizabeth is referred to in passports, banknotes and even in the national anthem. These will all be renewed when the next ruler comes to power.
The public has been told that Charles is planning to make other changes when he eventually comes to power.
The Sunday Times reported in spring 2021 that Charles plans to convert the royal residences from private to public. With this, Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, Balmoral Castle, Sandringham Manor and Clarence House will be more widely open to the public during the year.
The palaces would still serve as the homes of royalty, even if public access were increased. Normally, royal residences are open to the public for a few months a year. In the future, for example, Buckingham Palace could be visited all year round, even when King Charles himself was there.
