John Howard has been appointed to the Order of Merit, an honour limited to only 24 living individuals at any one time. Members are chosen by the Queen in recognition of “exceptional distinction” in their fields. Mr Howard says he’s honoured, and it’s a reminder of the respect the Queen has for Australia.

PETER CAVE: You heard in the interview that Bob Hawke said he inherited a $9 billion budget deficit from the Fraser government.
Malcolm Fraser’s treasurer was John Howard – the man who went on to become Australia’s second longest serving prime minister.
He’s now been given a personal gift from the Queen – an appointment to the prestigious Order of Merit.
Only 24 living individuals from Commonwealth countries are in the order at any one time.
Mr Howard spoke to Adam Harvey.
JOHN HOWARD: About 10 days ago the Queen’s private secretary telephoned me and asked whether I would accept appointment and I said I was both surprised and very honoured and the answer was yes.
ADAM HARVEY: You must be very pleased?
JOHN HOWARD: Yes, I feel very honoured. It is obviously something that gives me a great deal of pleasure and surprise. I am conscious of the eminent Australians in the past who have received this award and that adds to the quality of it as far as I am concerned because I respect the contribution of each of those men and women to not only the life of Australia but the lives of the world and the excellence that they’ve displayed in their individual fields.
I also see it as a compliment to Australia and a reminder of the great respect the Queen has for our country and the continued interest that she displays in the welfare of Australia and Australians.
PETER CAVE: The former prime minister John Howard speaking to Adam Harvey.
