Queen's Service Order


 

The Queen's Service Order was established by Queen Elizabeth II on 13 March 1975. It is a New Zealand Order awarded for "for valuable voluntary service to the community or meritorious and faithful services to the Crown or similar services within the public sector, whether in elected or appointed office", excepting military service. This Order effectively replaced the Imperial Service Order in New Zealand during a review of the New Zealand Honours System in 1974.
