Flag of Tasmania - Construction

Construction

Unlike the national flag, the flag of Tasmania is not enshrined and protected by any acts of state or Commonwealth government. As a result, there are no official legal requirements for the construction of the flag of Tasmania. However tradition and decorum dictate that is should be:

1. the Union Jack occupying the upper quarter next the staff;
2. the fly is to be wholly blue, in line with the British Blue Ensign;
3. the State Badge is to be situated with its centre halfway between the edge of the canton and the end of the fly, and a third of the distance from the bottom of the flag;
