Having seen HRH The Prince of Wales take the salute at the Thanksgiving Service and March Past marking the end of the troubles in Northern Ireland I was struck by the fact that he was wearing the sash and star to the Order of the Garter. Wouldn't it have been an ideal moment to revive the Order of St Patrick?
Just an idea...

Given that the Order was designed for the whole of Ireland, and that its Chapel and Chancery were in Dublin, it would seem difficult to revive it for Northern Ireland only.
