British government recognitions
Queen's Birthday Honours are announced on or around the date of the Queen's Official Birthday in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. 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 formally conferred by the monarch (or her representative) some time after the date of the announcement, particularly for those service people on active duty.
The 1983 Queen's Birthday honours lists were announced on 10 June 1983.
At this time honours for Australians were still being awarded in the UK honours on the advice of the premiers of Australian states, as well as in the Australian honours system which had been established in 1975.
Recipients of honours are displayed here as they were styled before their new honours.
