Irish citizens and "settled" status
Do all Irish citizens living in the UK have "settled" status (i.e.
Indefinite Leave to Remain, or ILR), or do they need to apply for it like all other EEA citizens? The Wikipedia entry for Indefinite Leave to Remain http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indefinite_leave_to_remain claims that they do have settled status, but I couldn't find anything to back this up on the Home Office website. Thanks, Marco

Thanks, Marco Yes, they do. They are also entitled to vote as if they were UK citizens. Both are covered by the Government Of Ireland Act, 1921. -- Robbie

Thanks, Marco I made a mistake in my answer, it's the Government Of Ireland Act, 1920 not 1921. -- Robbie
