PDF 62 KB
Minutes:
The
Democratic and Electoral Services Manager recommended that the
current protocol for flying the Borough Council flag at half-mast
be continued. Through engagement with
Civic Teams at other Local Councils, it was apparent that the
approach detailed in ‘Civic Ceremonial’ was commonly
used.
The
Committee commented that if Maidstone Borough Council deviated from
national policy, this had the potential to lead to challenges in
the future.
RESOLVED: That the Borough Council continue to
use the existing protocol, as set out in ‘Civic
Ceremonial’.
Voting: Unanimous
