The Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (England) Regulations 2007 (as amended) apply to England only. The flying of flags by local authorities in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales is a matter for the devolved administrations and for individual local authorities to determine in accordance with any applicable legislation.
