The translation confused it somewhat.


The new Intendant of the Royal Palaces is Mr R.A.P. (Roger) Maas LL.M MBA.

The new indentant will be responsible for the Royal Palace in Amsterdam (for representation), Noordeinde Palace in The Hague (the official residence) and Huis ten Bosch in The Hague (the private residence). Also Het Oude Loo Castle in Apeldoorn (hunting lodge) as well the privately owned properties on the Royal Domain De Horsten in Wassenaar will be under his eye.

Also the organisation and maintenance of inventories in named properties as well the surrounding parks ressort under the new Indendant. There uses to be a special house for the Intendant of the Royal Palaces, to live with his family, ( this one is on the domain of Soestdijk Palace ) but I do not know if housing near Noordeinde or Huis ten Bosch still is part of the nice additional privileges of this function.

Starting tomorrow, the Deputy General Secretary of the Service of the Royal Household (ir. Bram Gille MPA) will become the new General Secretary. The former General Secretary will be the new Deputy General Secretary (drs. Eric Verwaal). This switch is made because of health reasons (according to Vorsten the (old) General Secretary has long covid, which is why the deputy already deputized in many ways since October last year).
