Statement from the Lord Mayor of Norwich, Councillor Dr Kevin Maguire
The Lord Mayor said: “On behalf of Norwich City Council and its residents, I extend our greatest sympathy to the Royal Family and the Palace following the passing of Her Majesty the Queen.
“Here in Norwich, we are marking her passing respectfully in a number of ways which include the flag being flown at half-mast initially and then according to protocol.
“Our residents are invited to pay their respects via a book of condolence which will be available at City Hall”.
A dedicated webpage www.norwich.gov.uk/TheQueen has been set up and will include further details about how we’ll be paying our respect and marking protocol as soon as they have been confirmed.
