tions respecting Foreign Orders and Medals shall be substituted

the occasions specified in the terms of the letter from the King's
Private Secretary conveying the Royal Sanction.
3. The and unrestricted permission by Warrant under the

full
Royal Sign-Manual is designed, subject to the exception mentioned

in Rule 4 (a) respecting British Naval or Military Officers during
hostilities, to meet cases where the Decoration may be said to have

been earned by some valuable service rendered to the Head of the
State conferring it, or to the State itself. The private or restricted
permission is
contemplated for Decorations which are more or less of
a complimentary character. In either case, the matter will be
submitted to the King by His Majesty's Principal Secretary of State
for Foreign Affairs.
4. Full and unrestricted permission by Warrant under the Royal

has rendered valuable services to the Head of the State conferring
the Order, or to the State itself, within the period of two years
immediately preceding the notification of the Decoration to His

Majesty's Government provided for in Rule 5. The term "service

mission, or any person in receipt of a salary from public funds in
the United Kingdom, or in any British Dominion, Colony, or
Protectorate.
(c.) On any British subject employed in a Foreign Embassy or

Legation in the United Kingdom.
5. The desire of the Head of a Foreign State to confer upon a

British subject the Insignia of an Order, or the fact that he has done
so, must be notified to His Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs either through the British Diplomatic Representative

accredited to the Head of the Foreign State, or through his
Diplomatic Representative at the Court of St. James. His Majesty's
Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs shall be under no
obligation to consider claims that are not brought to his notice
through one of these channels.

accept the Decoration of a Foreign Order, hewill, at any future time,
be allowed to accept the Decoration of a higher class of the same

Order, to which he may have become eligible by increase of rank in
the Foreign Service, or in the service of his own country; or any
other distinctive mark of honour strictly consequent upon the
acceptance of the original Decoration, and common to every person
upon whom such Decoration is conferred.

8. Medals which constitute a particular class of a Foreign Order
are subject in all respects to the above Regulations in the same
manner as higher grades of the Order, except that permission to wear
will be given by Letter and not by Royal Warrant. The King's
permission must be obtained for any other Medal to be worn. No
permission is needed to accept a Foreign Medal if it is not intended
to be worn.
