This note offers a summary of the relationship between the Irish state1 and the United Kingdom in those fields, and some thoughts on possible implications for Scottish independence. 1. Nationality Law 1.1 The Irish case A new nationality The nationality law of a new state must necessarily provide for two matters: an initial population of nationals on the date of independence, and the acquisition and loss of nationality on an ongoing basis. In the case of the Irish state, the initial population was defined by Article 3 of the Irish Free State Constitution of 1922. Article 3 conferred Irish Free State citizenship upon a person if they were domiciled in the “area of the jurisdiction of the Irish Free State” on the date the state was founded (6 December 1922), provided (a) they had been resident in that area for the previous seven years, or (b) they or one of their parents had been born in “Ireland”.2 A full framework of nationality law, covering all aspects of acquisition and loss of nationality, was not then adopted until the Irish Nationality and Citizenship Act 1935. -

Steamships at Hastings Pier
Steamships at Hastings Pier Passengers aboard the Devonia in 1925, (HPC001.001) www.hastingspier.org.uk 1 Steamships at Hastings Pier The paddle steamer Carrick Castle was purchased second-hand in 1885 by the newly formed Hastings and St Leonards Passenger Steamship Co Ltd. She began trips from Hastings Pier in May 1885, the year this picture was painted, taking up to 360 passengers at a time. A Painting of Steamship Carrick Castle with Hastings Pier in background. By George Mears, 1885. This Painting is in Hastings Museum. Not all the ships that worked from Hastings Pier were paddle steamers. This is the Lady Brassey at the landing stage on eastern side of the Pier. She was built in 1886 in Newcastle for the Hastings and St Leonards Passenger Steamship Co, could carry 372 passengers, and had two steam driven propellers at the rear. But she didn’t last long because in 1890 she was sold on to Amazon Steamship Co Ltd in Paraguay. The Lady Brassey moored at Hastings Pier head. (HPC006.128) www.hastingspier.org.uk 2 Paddle steamers were the preferred craft because they could operate in shallow water, were highly manoeuvrable, and so were ideal for running the seaside excursions from piers which had become very popular by the 1880s. Between 1886 and 1890 the landing stages at Hastings Pier were extended twice, on the eastern and southern sides, so that up to four vessels could be moored at a time. The Lady Brassey was replaced by the Seagull, which was really a steam tug with a passenger certificate. -

It was most successful. The accommodation and main centre were typical 1960s college space and served us well even INDUSTRIAL though the lecture room struggled to accommodate the numbers. The village was a delight – the ARCHAEOLOGY gardens of Cannington Court (now part of the college) were open to us and there were no less than five pubs to explore. The Conference Dinner was outside the capacity of the College so to Taunton Race NEWS 191 Course we went (regrettably not on a race night) and were served an excellent meal and at which the Winter 2019 AIA prizes were handed out (see page 19). The organization was faultless, well planned and well executed by members of the Somerset Industrial Archaeological Society led by Peter Daniel and Steve Miles. Steve established a precedent by Honorary President Prof Marilyn Palmer MBE bringing along his tribe in support – and support they did. Peter was also responsible for editing and leading the team that produced a revised version of the Somerset Gazetteer. Honorary Vice Presidents As usual John McGuiness had done a superb job as Conference Secretary and Steve Miles had Prof Angus Buchanan, Sir Neil Cossons OBE, Prof John Hume handled the bookings impeccably. -
