The National flag and the EU flag are both represented in the backdrop to the podium in the Government Press Centre. In addition, the National flag is present at all major press conferences held there. However, camera angles, interview positions etc can mean that the National flag does not always come into view in newspaper photographs or in television coverage. While obviously my Department is not in a position to control such matters, the Government Press Office will try to ensure, as far as possible, the National flag is given prominence at events in the Press Centre.
