Queen Elizabeth is exempt from 160 laws ranging from royal business to animal welfare in Great Britain, according to a new report.
The laws have been rewritten to give immunity to The Queen, with 160 exemptions written into laws since 1967.
One of the laws states that even the police cannot enter royal residences without permission from the monarch. Laws about workers’ rights and her private estates have all been modified for Her Majesty.
“There is a clear pattern, and they relate largely to the economic interests of the monarch,” said Thomas Adams, an associate professor of law at Oxford University.
“The only case for this is a constitutional one: that this maintains the institution, making sure that the monarch is not brought into disrepute in one way or another,” Adams said. “But it comes at this big cost.”
The law also means the Queen’s staff is not allowed to pursue sexual and racial discrimination complaints. She also doesn’t have to abide by workers’ rights, health, safety or pension laws.
