Dissolution Honours List

The Dissolution Honours List names those individuals receiving Honours from the Monarch at a time following the Dissolution of the United Kingdom Parliament.

Sometimes the list will also include knighthoods for others who have served in the Parliament, including those who may not want peerages.
