Oath of Allegiance (Ireland)
The Irish Oath of Allegiance was a controversial provision in the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921, which Irish TDs (members of the Lower House of the Irish Parliament) and Senators were required to take, to take their seats in Dáil Éireann (Chamber of Deputies) and Seanad Éireann (Irish Senate) before the 'Constitution (Removal of Oath) Act, 1933' was passed on 3 May 1933.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CONSTITUTION (REMOVAL OF OATH) ACT, 1933 )〕 The controversy surrounding the Oath was one of the principal issues that led to the Irish Civil War of 1922–23 between supporters and opponents of the Treaty.
==Text of the Oath==
The Oath was included in Article 17 of the Irish Free State's 1922 Constitution. It read: "I (name) do solemnly swear true faith and allegiance to the Constitution of the Irish Free State as by law established, and that I will be faithful to H.M. King George V, his heirs and successors by law in virtue of the common citizenship of Ireland with Great Britain and her adherence to and membership of the group of nations forming the British Commonwealth of Nations."
The words "allegiance to the Constitution of the Irish Free State" were taken from DeValera's preferred version, which read: "I (name) do solemnly swear true faith and allegiance to the constitution of the Irish Free State, to the Treaty of Association, and to recognize the King of Great Britain as Head of Associated States."〔Coogan, Tim Pat. ''Michael Collins: The Man Who Made Ireland'', p. 267. (Boulder: Roberts Rinehart Publishers, 1996).〕
The Oath had to be taken in front of the Governor-General of the Irish Free State or some other person authorised by him.
