Description

From photos of the National Police Memorial ceremony, the flag of Victoria Police is also based on the [British] blue ensign with the Victoria police badge in the fly. The paraded flag does not seem to differ from the flag for hoisting, with the exception of the additional silver fringes, cords, and tassel.

Police lance pennon

Several of the other photos at http://www.cuff.dk/cuff/mounted.html show what is presumably the Victorian equivalent of the WA Police lance pennon - swallowtailed, three horizontal stripes light blue, white, blue.

Having looked at the National Police Memorial photos website, I can now summarize the patterns of lance pennons used by mounted police in each Australian state and territory:
Victoria: light blue above white above dark blue. Proportions 1:3; swallowtail 1/3 the pennon length.
