EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Navy and Marines (Property of Deceased) Order 1956. The 1956 Order deals with the situation where an officer, seaman or marine is entitled to a medal that has not been issued to him at the date of his death, and he has not left the medal by the terms of a will. It provides for a list of relations, in priority order, to whom the medal is to be given. This Order amends the reference to widow in the 1956 Order to include a widower or surviving civil partner.
