2022 State Opening of Parliament information


The Prince of Wales reading the Queen's Speech

A State Opening of the Parliament of the United Kingdom took place on 10 May 2022.[1] Charles, Prince of Wales, and Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, opened the third session of the 58th Parliament on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II with the traditional Queen's Speech.[2] It was the first State Opening at which two Counsellors of State acted on behalf of the monarch.

On 6 May, BBC News reported that the Queen was hoping to attend.[3] On 9 May, it was reported that the Queen would not be attending.[4] Instead, her son, the then-Prince of Wales, and her grandson, the Duke of Cambridge opened a new session of the British Parliament on behalf of the Queen, acting as Counsellors of State, with Prince Charles reading the Queen's speech.[5][6] This would be the final State Opening of the Queen's reign before her death in September 2022.
