The monarch's representative in an English or Welsh county (as defined in the Lieutenancies Act 1997), a Scottish city or an area in Scotland designated by an Order in Council; in the City of London (including the Temples) the function is held by a commission presided over by the capital's Lord Mayor. When the bomb drops and destroys central government, (s)he takes over; until then, (s)he attends ceremonies, banquets and bar-mitzvahs with or on behalf of the monarch. Scottish cities don't have one, the monarch's representative is the Lord Provost (not sure if they take over if the bomb drops though). |
