Unveilings and openings

When performing an unveiling or opening, the ceremony should be kept as simple as possible. It is suggested that a coloured cloth be fixed to enable a single release action to uncover the plaque or item being unveiled. On no account should a flag be used for this purpose.

The Protocol Office can provide assistance on the wording used for a plaque.
