Queen's Remembrancer - Other Responsibilities

Other Responsibilities

The Queen's Remembrancer is also responsible for nomination of the High Sheriffs to each County of England and Wales (except Cornwall, Merseyside, Greater Manchester and Lancashire), who are later selected by the Duke of Lancaster (i.e. Sovereign) via the Pricking ceremony.

The Remembrancer presents the Lord Mayor of the City of London to the Lord Chief Justice, Master of the Rolls and other High Court judges at the Royal Courts of Justice on Lord Mayor's Day.

The Queen's Remembrancer also presents newly-appointed Sheriffs of the City of London with a Writ of Approbation from the Monarch, sealed with the Great Silver Seal of the Exchequer. This takes place at the same time as the Quit Rents.
