Government Buildings
For government
buildings with flagpoles, the New Zealand Flag should be flown on a daily
basis during normal weekday working hours and only in the weekend if the
building is in use. Diplomatic Posts
New Zealand’s
diplomatic posts overseas, including the residence of Heads of Mission,
should fly the New Zealand Flag on a daily basis. Naval Ships and Government Vessels
Commissioned
ships of the Royal New Zealand Navy fly the New Zealand Flag as a jack (that
is at the bow) when anchored, secured to a buoy, moored, or tied to a wharf.
They also fly the New Zealand White Ensign at the stern. Government vessels
fly the New Zealand Flag as an ensign (that is at the stern). Merchant Ships and Pleasure Craft
Merchant ships,
pleasure boats, and yachts may fly the New Zealand Red Ensign. Aircraft
Both the New
Zealand Flag and the New Zealand Civil Air Ensign may be flown on aircraft
registered in New Zealand Airlines owning New Zealand aircraft, and the Civil
Aviation Division of the Ministry of Transport, may flay the Ensign on their
buildings as well as on their aircraft. |
