Belfast East, was a former potential Dáil Éireann parliamentary constituency located in Northern Ireland despite being outside the Dáil's jurisdiction. It was a Dáil constituency from 1921 to 1922. ==Representation== The constituency was, in Irish republican theory, entitled to return four Teachtaí Dála (known in English as Deputies) in 1921 to serve in the Irish Republic's Second Dáil. None took their seat in the Dáil. The First Dáil, passed a motion at its last meeting on 10 May 1921, the first three parts of which make explicit the republican view. * 1. That the Parliamentary elections which are to take place during the present month be regarded as elections to Dáil Éireann. * 2. That all deputies duly returned at these elections be regarded as members of Dáil Éireann and allowed to take their seats on subscribing to the proposed Oath of Allegiance. * 3. That the present Dáil dissolve automatically as soon as the new body has been summoned by the President and called to order. Sinn Féin used the elections in 1921 to elect the Dáil. The Second Dáil first met on 16 August 1921. It last met on 8 June 1922. From the Third Dáil onwards the Dáil represented only the twenty-six counties which formed the Irish Free State. Belfast East is also a United Kingdom Parliament constituency. It has been represented by one member from 1922. The constituency sent four MPs to the Northern Ireland House of Commons 1921-1929. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Belfast East (Dáil Éireann constituency)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
