Talk:British Nationality Act 1948

2008
Does anyone know of more information on this act - I mean anyone from the legal profession?? W2ch00 (talk) 13:25, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I added a bit about section 3 which is the only part still in force. There is more about the history behind the Act in the history of British nationality law article. Richard75 (talk) 20:19, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

you reverted the addition of the facts about British subject status, saying it was incorrect. But the Home Office guidance says: This would seem to say that British subject status was applied to everyone in the UK and the colonies, and the Commonwealth countries, at least until they adopted their own citizenship laws (Australia did this later that month, for example).

 * That is correct, but the wording I deleted said that the status of British subject was "granted" to people who actually already had it, implying that they weren't British subjects before, which they were. (I didn't mean that they were not subjects.) Richard75 (talk) 23:38, 20 December 2020 (UTC)
 * , Oh I see. Still, I think the lead is a little unclear on the subject status and the relationship with the empire/Commonwealth nationals/-ities and the difference between "and Colonies" and "Commonwealth". GPinkerton (talk) 06:46, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
