Order Revival?


I am wondering - and I could be wrong - whether the Queen will take the opportunity to propose a revival of the Most Illustrious Order of St Patrick, in some form or other, during Her Majesty's state visit to the Irish Republic.

I have written at length about the Order, its institution and its possible revival already.

I have suggested that the Chapel of the Order should be within St Patrick's (Anglican) Cathedral in the City of Armagh; and that it would be appropriate to remove the ancient banners and insignia of the former Knights from St Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin to the aforesaid cathedral church.
