Britain’s government has announced plans to unveil a permanent memorial to Queen Elizabeth II in 2026, to mark what would have been the late monarch’s 100th birthday. Robin Janvrin, Elizabeth’s former private secretary, has been appointed as chairman of the Queen Elizabeth memorial committee to consider proposals for a “fitting tribute” to Britain’s longest-reigning monarch. The committee will consider Elizabeth’s life of public service and the causes she supported, and recommend plans for a national legacy program in her honor. The recommendations will be presented to Elizabeth’s heir King Charles III and the prime minister.
