I don't know what was discussed on field, so I'll start the ball rolling with my proposal:
The kingdom should spend no more than 25% of it's treasury on this.
The kingdom should cover up to 50% of the monarchs direct travel costs (bus tickets, airline tickets, etc).
The kingdom should not cover any additional travel costs (food, lodging, etc) as much of this can be done cheaply and/or should be the monarch's personal responsibility.
The kingdom should not cover any part of anyone else's costs (spouse, other officer, etc).

I would put it up to 100% of the monarch's direct travel cost, as long as it is no more than 25% of Kingdom treasury and the monarch is dealing with food/lodging. I would also include that all expenses must include a receipt.

Agree with the receipt, but a 100% reimbursement is too much. Considering that lodging is part of Clan, and they can usually get a ride, they are literally just paying food. To me that would make an incentive for running for Monarch to get a free vacation. Part of the burden should fall on the individual.

I submit that Air Travel should be 100% reimbursed, up to $500 or 25% of the available treasury.

Oh good, now my volunteered meals at GV events can *directly* contribute towards a vote I don't have input in!
Hooray!

You have input, Bear. You don't have a vote, but you can express your opinion. If it's any consolation, I don't get a vote anymore either since I now belong to a freehold. Thus my dues (I was paid up through the end of this year) and donations and such are going toward this and I don't get a vote. I'm OK with it, but not the CONCEPT of it. Hopefully soon we'll be looking at a vote for floating crown and we can change this.

I agree with Bear, I don't think that the Kingdom should be sponsoring travel for volunteer officers to attend Clan, as we're seeing this year it is easy enough to find someone else that is already going to be there to represent GV in the CoM meeting. Of course, the Corpora does allow the Monarch to spend 10% each month without any need for approval by the populace, which if I understand the situation correctly would be several hundred dollars anyways. So, I really see no need to approve any more than that 10% which will more than likely cover 50-75% of the trip.
