            <text>&lt;div class="whitespace-normal break-words" style="text-align:center;"&gt;At the Court at Buckingham Palace, the 28th day of March, 1919.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="whitespace-normal break-words" style="text-align:center;"&gt;PRESENT, &lt;br /&gt;The KING's Most Excellent Majesty in Council.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p class="whitespace-normal break-words"&gt;WHEREAS there was this day presented to His Majesty at the Board a Report of the Lords of His Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council (Present: The Lord Chancellor, The Marquess of Lansdowne, The Marquess of Crewe, the Lord Chamberlain, the Lord Newton, the Lord Stamfordham, the Lord Sumner), dated the 1st day of August, 1918, in the words following, viz.:—&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="whitespace-normal break-words"&gt;"Whereas by virtue of the powers granted under the "The 'Titles Deprivation Act, 1917,' Your Majesty in Council was pleased by Order dated the 27th day of November, 1917, to appoint a Committee of Your Privy Council to inquire into and report the names of any persons enjoying any dignity or title of honour as a peer or as a British prince who have during the present war borne arms against Your Majesty or Your Allies or who have adhered to Your Majesty's enemies, and inasmuch as the Committee have considered the matters submitted to them in accordance with the aforesaid terms of reference and have carefully examined the evidence set forth in the two affidavits sworn to by Your Majesty's Procurator-General and Solicitor for the affairs of Your Majesty's Treasury, dated the 25th and 27th day of July, 1918, copies of which are annexed to this Report:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="whitespace-normal break-words"&gt;"Their Lordship do hereby report to Your Majesty that the persons hereinafter named have adhered to Your Majesty's enemies during the present war:—&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="whitespace-normal break-words"&gt;His Royal Highness Leopold Charles, Duke of Albany, Earl of Clarence and Baron Arklow.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="whitespace-normal break-words"&gt;His Royal Highness Ernest Augustus, Duke of Cumberland and Teviotdale, Earl of Armagh.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="whitespace-normal break-words"&gt;His Royal Highness Ernest Augustus (Duke of Brunswick), Prince of Great Britain and Ireland.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="whitespace-normal break-words"&gt;Henry, Viscount Taaffe of Corren and Baron of Ballymote."&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="whitespace-normal break-words"&gt;And seeing that the Report has been laid before Parliament in the manner prescribed, and there has not been passed in either House a motion disapproving thereof:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="whitespace-normal break-words"&gt;His Majesty, having taken the said Report into consideration was pleased, by and with the advice of His Privy Council, to accept the same.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="whitespace-normal break-words"&gt;Whereof Garter King of Arms, Ulster King of Arms, and Lyon King of Arms, are to take notice and to govern themselves accordingly.&lt;/p&gt;
