The Department of Culture, Media and Sport is responsible for issuing guidance on the flying of flags on Government buildings, including the Union flag and other flags. Any guidance shared with the courts on flag flying by HMCTS has been issued by DCMS.

HMCTS has not shared any guidance on flying flags other than the Union flag in 2023.
