Duke Wellington Posted January 22, 2019 #26 Share Posted January 22, 2019 4 hours ago, stevewinn said: No, incorrect. We are not part of schengen. In 1922 both the Irish and British Govt. agreed on the free movement of people, and rights to live, work and vote. the agreement is domestic legislation in Britain and Ireland. and no EU treaty supersedes it, in fact its the other way around. the EU recognises the agreement. So the Common Travel Area. will continue, for your information: CTA is a long-standing arrangement between the UK, the Crown Dependencies (Jersey, Guernsey, and the Isle of Man) and Ireland. The CTA is not reliant on membership of the EU, formed before either the UK or Ireland were members, but based on domestic legislation and bilateral agreements. Irish citizens in the UK and British citizens in Ireland will continue to enjoy the same associated rights and entitlements to public services, including access to employment, healthcare, education, social welfare and benefits, as well as the right to vote in elections. Ireland has always had an odd relationship with Britain. Even before all this Single Currency nonsense you could hope on a plane and fly to Dublin without a passport and work there. Its like they are independent but not fully parted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
