I am glad to have an opportunity to say a word about this. The usual practice is for the flag of St. George to be flown in England on all Government buildings on St. George's Day, on St. David's Day for the particular national flag of Wales to be flown in Wales, and on St. Andrew's Day for the particular national flag of Scotland to be flown in Scotland. It may have escaped the hon. Gentleman's attention—I know how occupied he is with Scottish affairs—that London is in England and the Board of Trade head office is in London.
