British government recognitions
The 1997 Birthday Honours were announced on 14 June 1997 for the United Kingdom and on 2 June 1997 for New Zealand. Queen's Birthday Honours are announced on or around the date of the Monarch's Official Birthday in the United Kingdom and some Commonwealth countries. The dates vary, both from year to year and from country to country. All are published in supplements to the "London Gazette" and many are conferred by the monarch (or her representative) some time after the date of the announcement, particularly for those service people on active duty.
Recipients of honours are shown below as they were styled before their new honour.
