In March 1993 this royal blue and gold design was adopted by the ACT Government. It features the Southern Cross and part of the Canberra City Coat of Arms. The blue and white colours and the swan symbolise both the Aboriginal and Europeoan Australians. The castle in the field of Arms alludes to the role of our capital city and the royal Crown represents the role of the Sovereign in Government.
