Limerick County Council

by Mario Fabretto

Flag divided per pale green-white-green, with the coat of arms on the central green stripe.

This flag is of the county council - the elected body responsible for local administration. It is flown at council offices but it does not represent the county and is not used by the general population.

Vincent Morley, 1 November 1997

Limerick City Council

The City Council of Limerick, Ireland, for official purposes uses a banner of arms based on the city coat of arms: http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/ireland/2009/0529/1224247668579.html.
"A painting of the arms also appears on the document as well as being shown in the form of a banner, which, when flown, will proclaim the presence of the city council."

A very small image of the flag can be seen on a document for registration of the armorial bearings, following the same story on the city website: http://www.limerick.ie/Press/LimerickCityConfirmsItsRightToArmorialBearingsCoatofArms.
