answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/04/2024 answer text <p>The Government attaches great importance to our country’s history and traditions and encourages recognition of our historic counties, often marked by local celebrations on county days. I write to local leaders to encourage and support these celebrations throughout the year. This year, there are 56 registered historic county flags across Great Britain, which includes the addition of three new flags for Banffshire, Berwickshire and Morayshire. My department proudly flies each registered county flag in Whitehall to mark county days, and this includes flying the flag for Essex.</p> answering member constituency North Dorset answering member printed Simon Hoare question first answered 30/04/2024 14:34:02 answering member 4494 label Biography information for Simon Hoare
