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 conferred by the monarch (or her representative) some time after the date of the announcement, particularly for those service people on active duty.
The 1982 Queen's Birthday Honours list for the United Kingdom was issued on 11 June 1982,[1] and the lists for Australia, New Zealand, and Fiji were issued on 12 June 1982.[2][3][4][5]
