Motion Text

That this House expresses deep concern with the capricious nature of the decision making process which recommends the award of honours as illustrated by the minutes of the meeting of 17th October which considered the forthcoming New Year's Honours List; believes that Honours should not be awarded or withheld on a whim; and calls for a new open, transparent and simplified system with the abolition of all titles forthwith.
