Councillors want portraits for Bangor and Newtownards civic buildings
A Northern Ireland council has received a refusal after asking for a second free portrait of King Charles III.
The portrait of the monarch was gifted to Ards and North Down Borough Council by the Cabinet Office in April 2024. The portrait was provided with a letter detailing the portrait description, the materials it is made from and the practical tips for hanging it. “The Cabinet Office responded to say that they were only able to provide one free portrait per authority and were not permitted to sell the portraits. A portrait will be available in due course from commercial outlets but as yet no details are available.”
“This exercise has been screened by officers. It is noted that this is a replacement of the current portrait, therefore the conclusion has been reached that the policy be screened out with mitigating actions due to the minor impacts.
