T&T FLAG AT HALF MAST TO MOURN MANNING

The Ministry of National Security has announced that the T&T National Flag will be flown at half mast "in observance of the passing of former Prime Minister, Mr. Patrick Manning."
 
Mr Manning died at 8:15 this morning, July 02, 2016, at the San Fernando General Hospital.

In a media release the Ministry advised all state and non-state agencies and all Trinidad and Tobago diplomatic missions abroad to fly the flag at half-mast.

The ministry stated that other flags "on the same stand of poles should also be at half-mast or should not be flown at all when the National Flag is at half-mast.
Flags of foreign nations should not be flown at half mast, unless their country is also observing mourning."
