CHAPTER XX.
Use of Flags.
§ 432.-1. The Royal Standard shall be flown at Government House on the King's Birthday, and on the days of His Majesty's Accession and Coronation.
2. The Union Flag, without the Budge of the Colony, shall be flown at Government House from sunrise to sunset on other days.
3. The Union Flag, with the approved Arms
or Badge of the Colony, as shown in the drawing in the Circular Despatch of the 23rd August, 1875, emblazoned in the centre thereof, sur- rounded by a green garland, shall be used by Officers Governors, Lieutenant-Governors, or administering the Government of Colonies or Dependencies when embarked in boats or other vessels.
4. The British Blue Ensign, with the Arms or Badge of the Colony emblazoned on the fly (as shown in the drawing enclosed in the Circular Despatch of the 23rd of August, 1875), and the pendant, will be flown by all armed vessels in the employ of the Government of a Colony.
5. The British Blue Ensign, with the Arms or Badge of the Colony emblazoned thereon, as described in the preceding section, but without the pendant, will be flown by vessels which belong to, or are in the service of, the Govern- ment of a Colony, but not armed.
6. All other vessels registered as belonging
to one of His Majesty's Colonies or Dependencies will fly the Red Ensign without any Badge (see Section 73 (1) of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1894). There will, however, be no objection to Colonial Merchant Vessels carrying distinguish- ing flags with the Badge of the Colony thereon, in addition to the Red Ensign, provided that such fing does not infringe the limits laid down in Section 73 (2) of the Merchant Shipping Act,
1894.
