Strongly disagree with merger as they are two different Acts from two different countries. JAJ (talk) 18:39, 12 January 2008 (UTC)

Well, this is a surprisingly mad and uninformative article which appears to be the work of IRA groupies. As is known to every sentient life form, Attlee brought in the Ireland Act to ensure that Irish citizens still had the right to live, work and vote in the United Kingdom after the creation of the Irish Republic. From reading this deranged rant, you'd never guess. Khamba Tendal (talk) 19:11, 1 February 2020 (UTC)

"Secret Cabinet papers"
The article cites Despite being described as "secret", presumably it was published in 1979 or so under the thirty-year rule, but I couldn't find reference to it on the National Archives website (search form here). The form of the citation doesn't seem to correspond with the National Archives scheme. There are 10 entries if you search for the exact phrase "Republic of Ireland Act" and the year 1949. Unfortunately the entries aren't digitised and the catalogue entries aren't very specific about what they contain. The source must surely be verifiable, but it's not clear from the citation how one would go about verifying it. At the very least we should mention where it can be accessed (even if access is inconvenient or expensive). Hairy Dude (talk) 01:35, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
