Short answer: Yes. Morangup residents can request a complimentary Australian National Flag, and often the Australian Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander flags, from their local Federal MP’s electorate office. Supply is limited and depends on the MP’s annual budget and office policy.
- Federal: Division of Bullwinkel → Ms Trish Cook MP (Australian Labor Party).
- State (WA): District of Central Wheatbelt → Mr Lachlan Hunter MLA (The Nationals WA).
