Shouldn't we have some discussion here about forms of address for individuals holding both a royal title as well as, for example, a ministerial appointment? Does this vary with context? Which form of address takes precedence when? Baron of Bastanchury (talk) 17:15, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

While far from official, it can vary with context. Noble titles typically are shown preference. For example, it would be completely appropriate to use Excellency when referring to a Minister in the context of their role, even if they hold a title. Of course, it would be just as appropriate to utilize their title, instead. If the context has nothing to do with Ministerial work, the style of their title would obviously be the appropriate form of address. In my opinion, the one exception would be the role of Prime Minister. Some might disagree, but I think that role should supercede my title of Duke. Again, this is all just opinion. It might help if I knew the specific circumstance, or was this more of a general question? Jordan 16:04, 8 July 2019 (UTC)
