The National Flag should be at the centre and at the highest point of the group when a number of flags are grouped and displayed from flagstaffs. When flags are flown from adjacent staffs, the National Flag should be hoisted first and lowered last. No flag or pennant may be placed above the National Flag or to its right. When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they are to be flown from separate staffs of the same height. The flags should be of equal size.
International usage forbids the display of the flag of one nation above that of another nation.
When the National Flag is flown from a staff it should be hoisted to the peak of the staff unless it is at half-mast. It should be again raised to the peak before it is lowered for the day. Crepe streamers may be affixed above the flag as a sign of mourning. Flags are to be flown at half-mast on Government buildings when instructions are so issued by the Office of the Prime Minister. When the National Flag is displayed otherwise than by being flown from a staff, it should be displayed flat, with the 'hoist' on the left of the audience, whether indoors or out, or so suspended that its folds fall as free as though it were hoisted upon a flagstaff.
