DISPLAY OF UK FLAGS ON CAR REGISTRATION PLATES

That this House notes with concern that it is at present illegal to display the Welsh, English, Scottish, Irish or United Kingdom flags on car registration plates; further notes that the display of the EU flag, together with the GB symbol, will be permissible in 2001; and calls upon the Government to remedy this anomaly.
