No flag

From Omsk I've got the answer that there are nor coat of arms nor flag of Omsk region because the laws about symbols of Omsk region were not passed yet.

Please note that these texts prove that no flag was adopted following the first competition (jury decision in december 1997). The second competition announced may have or not yielded finally a flag and coat of for the region, but I wander how this related to the adoption of the old RSFSR flag reported in August: How does the all-russian soviet flag «take into account the particularities of the Omsk area of the Irtysh Valley, its history and heraldry, the traditions of the Siberians, the bond of generations, and the recognition of the economic, social, and cultural development of the region»?...
