The Birthday Honours 2006 for the Commonwealth Realms were announced on 17 June 2006, to celebrate the Queen's Birthday of 2006.
The recipients of honours are displayed here as they were styled before their new honour, and arranged firstly by the country whose ministers advised the Queen on the appointments, then by honour, with classes (Knight, Knight Grand Cross, etc.) and then divisions (Military, Civil, etc.) as appropriate.
Famous quotes containing the words birthday and/or honours:
“the birthday of my life
Is come, my love is come to me.”
—Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
“If a novel reveals true and vivid relationships, it is a moral work, no matter what the relationships consist in. If the novelist honours the relationship in itself, it will be a great novel.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
