People hoping to name community events, buildings or projects in honour of The Queen鈥檚 Diamond Jubilee can now apply for permission.

Applications have opened for the commemorative use of Royal names and titles for the event, which takes place next year.

There will be a blanket approval for the phrases 鈥淒iamond Jubilee鈥� and 鈥淛ubilee鈥� providing they are used for non-commerical purposes.

However phrases such as 鈥淨ueen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee鈥� or 鈥淭he Queen鈥檚 Diamond Jubilee鈥� will need permission.

The rules for the use of Royal names and titles were also relaxed prior to the Golden Jubilee in 2002.
