Is there not also OM (Order of Merit) as given to The Hon. Robert Nesta Marley, OM?
It comes immediately before OJ (IE., Nat. Hero, ON, OJ, OM, CD OD, from highest to lowest).
I also believe that just as 'Rt. Excellent' must precede 'Nat. Hero of Ja.' & 'Most Hon.' must precede 'ON', that 'Rt. Hon.' must also precede 'OJ' & 'Hon.' must also precede 'OM'. As for CD and OD, I believe that the use of 'Hon' preceding the name is only in verbal communication when the post-nominal letters are omitted.
IE., one can speak of "The Honourable John Brown and The Honourable Joe Grind," but must write 'John Brown, CD and Joe Grind, OD,' but never, in writing nor speech, "The Hon. John Brown, CD and The Hon. Joe Grind, OD." Is this not correct?
