HC Deb 12 February 1976 vol 905 c318W
Mr. Powell

asked the Secretary of State for Defence whether the description of nationality "British (Irish)" used in Army records includes persons other than citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies; and whether it includes persons born elsewhere than in Northern Ireland.

Mr. Robert C. Brown

In Army Records the description "British (Irish)" is intended to apply only to citizens of the United Kingdom and Colonies who were born in Northern Ireland.
