What are Prime Minister's Resignation Honours?[edit]

Interesting article about 1945 Prime Minister's Resignation Honours. But... what are "Prime Minister's Resignation Honours"? I can sort of guess that they are done at the end of each Prime Minister's service to honor/reward the members of the government. Bartosik (talk) 12:31, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
