Palma.—The Spanish royal household yesterday confirmed that the Spanish royal family will be returning to Majorca for its annual summer holiday this year.

However, the Duke and Duchess of Palma will not be joining them.
Neither will the heir to the throne, Crown Prince Felipe, be taking part in the Copa del Rey sailing regatta because the organisers have altered the dates of the competition and the Prince will still be working when the regatta starts.

The Royals are expected to spend most of August on the island, during which time the King will have two meetings with the Prime Minister.
