§ 45. Sir John Biggs-Davisonasked the Secretary of State for Defence what flags are flown, regularly and on which special occasions, on Ulster Defence Regiment headquarters and bases; and whether there has been any change; and, if so, what are the changes and why they have been made.
§ Mr. Wiggin:The regimental flag is flown at all times at the Ulster Defence Regiment headquarters in Lisburn. At other Ulster Defence Regiment locations either the battalion flag or the Union flag or both may be flown. It is, however, for the battalion commanding officer to decide which flag or flags are flown at the bases under his command, and when they are flown. There has been no change in this policy.
