Secretary of State for Wales Stephen Crabb said:

“These honours recognise the achievements and service of extraordinary Welsh people at home and around the world.

“From our outstanding public figures to those silently serving their communities, they are selected for their dedication, commitment and tireless work in helping to improve the lives of others.

“We can be rightly proud of all the hard working people from Wales whose names feature on the honours list today. My congratulations to you all.”
