Claim: Australian peers and baronets can receive titles such as Viscount Bruce of Melbourne and included services rendered in the U.K. as well as eligibility for British Imperial Honours.
Evidence: Australians based in the United Kingdom and other realms which continue to make nominations for Imperial Honours (such as Papua New Guinea) continue to be eligible for nomination to Imperial Honours, including peerages, and already-extant peerages and baronetcies continue to be inherited according to the instrument of their creation. Peerage titles bestowed included some distinctly Australian titles, such as Viscount Bruce of Melbourne. Some Australians have been awarded peerages in recognition of services rendered in the United Kingdom, rather than Australia.
