A statement from Buckingham Palace:
The death of The Duke of Edinburgh:
In accordance with public health advice, members of the public are asked to continue to follow the current Government guidance, not to gather in crowds, and not to visit Royal residences to pay their respects.
During this time the Royal Family ask that members of the public consider making a donation to a charity instead of leaving floral tributes in memory of The Duke of Edinburgh.
An online Book of Condolence for those who wish to leave messages is available here.
Union flags have been half-masted at all Royal residences flying the Union flag. The Royal Standard will continue to fly at Windsor Castle where The Queen is in residence.
Media will be briefed on the Funeral plans in the coming days.
A selection of messages will be passed onto members of the Royal Family, and may be held in the Royal Archives for posterity.
