Unfortunately, as flag flying is now deregulated, DCMS does not hold records on the flying of flags by other government departments, other than on the designated days for flying the Union Flag.</p> answering member constituency Northampton North answering member printed Michael Ellis question first answered 05/12/2018 11:07:05 answering member 4116 label Biography information for Sir Michael Ellis
