[edit] Incorrect flag

The flag image shown is incorrect as it uses the new design for governors of British overseas territories. The old design (like the flag in this article) was used up until the 1990s. The main difference is the size of the central circle and the lack of a gold perimeter. I also doubt that the complete coat of arms was included in the circle.

Is there any source that backs-up the flag shown in this article???
