Gerald Law is absolutely correct in his comments about the secretive, unelected and (seemingly) unaccountable HD Committee.
This same committee however, have the audacity to change these so called rules when it comes to themselves and the chance to "grab another gong".
For example, a member of this same HD commitee who adds to his collection, a Commemorative Medal marking the 25th year of the Independence of Antigua and Barbuda breaking the 5 year rule, distant past rule and whilst still a Servant of the Crown. These so-called rules of longstanding regulation.
Great respect to Don Touhig MP for trying to raise these contentious issues on behalf of 35,000 Veterans.
These same Veterans who have their correspndence ignored by certain senior mandarins.
