In the interests of county unity, the Lord Lieutenant has ordered the Sutherland Flag Committee to put the shortlist of entries for the Flag Competition and to a binding vote by the people of Sutherland.
That vote runs until Monday, 26th November 2018 and is open to anyone who lives in Sutherland.
The vote includes the original chosen design along with the other designs that were in the final contention for the judges’ vote. All these flags met the criteria for good flag design and met Lyon Court requirements.
The vote is being run with support from the Flag Institute and is endorsed by the Court of the Lord Lyon. The Flag Institute has now taken down the Sutherland flag registry page for the duration of the vote.
The voting page can be found at:

If you live or work in Sutherland, please vote!
I’m not a fan of black outlines.
At this stage of roll back it would have been better to re-open the contest to new entries.
