Flag of the governor-general of Australia
[1] The flag has existed as three versions, the original flag used between 1902 and 1909 being a Union Flag defaced with a six pointed star, crowned, surrounded by ears of corn and a gold circlet.[2] On 16 July 1936, the governor-general adopted a new flag for official use in Australia.The flag had a 1:2 ratio, it had a royal blue background and in the centre of the flag there is a Royal Crest (a crowned lion standing on a Tudor Crown) and the words "COMMONWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA" in dark blue letters on a gold scroll below the Crest.[citation needed] The flag was otherwise identical to that introduced in 1936.The 1936 version of the flag was again adopted on 1 July 2024 after the installation of Governor-General Samantha Mostyn.
