Why doesn Ascension Island have its own flag like other UK Overseas Territories?
Simply because an agreed design hasn’t been submitted for approval yet. In the meantime we use the Union flag. The Ascension Island Council is however working on a design for a flag for the island which can then submitted to the Governor for his approval followed by an application to the UK’s College of Arms for Her Majesty the Queen’s approval. The public is also being invited to comment on the design before it is submitted (see News page).
