Criteria
This is the highest award for valor issued to any citizen of their star nation. It is issued for those circumstances which would qualify for next lower award but where the life is actually saved and in which an enhancement criterion applies. Enhancement criteria include but are not limited to personal danger to the nominee, additional work or research required to render life-saving assistance, or situations where the nominee renders life-saving assistance to multiple victims in the same incident. Note that this need not be medical assistance—rescuing someone from a burning building would count.
For this award to be issued attestation must be included from at least one other person, which can include the person assisted and can include media coverage of the circumstances.
This award will be voted on as follows by the Houses of Parliament: Both the House of Lords and the House of Commons will hear the evidence for this award. They will then be permitted a reasonable time to debate the award, not to exceed two weeks. After the debate, both Houses of Parliament will vote on the award. A vote of 66% or greater by both Houses will be required for the issuance of the award to any member.
The Houses of Parliament shall be the final authority on whether or not any enhancement criteria apply, or if the actions involved actual life-saving.
The Chair of the Steering Committee, or their designee, will then present the award on behalf of the Monarch at the next event at which the recipient will be present.
