HC Deb 13 July 1979 vol 970 c336W
Mr. Gordon Wilson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what advice he has given the Queen regarding the flying of the English Royal Standard in Scotland during the occasion of the Queen's latest visit.

Mr. Rifkind

No question of advice arose. The Sovereign's personal standard, flown wherever She is in residence in the United Kingdom, conforms to the Arms of the United Kingdom prescribed by Royal Proclamation of 1801, as provided for under the Act of Union of 1800 between Great Britain and Ireland.
