Chagos Islands: Flags
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether the design of the Chagos Islands flag will change following the ratification of the Chagos treaty.
Answered by Stephen Doughty
A British flag will continue to be flown at the UK-US Base on Diego Garcia as it has always done.
The British Indian Ocean Territory will cease to exist as a British Overseas Territory upon ratification of the treaty agreed between the UK and Mauritius.
No decision has yet been taken on any future use or adaptation of the current BIOT flag.
