Explanatory note

Article 4 of the Immigration (Control of Entry through Republic of Ireland) Order 1972 provides that certain persons who are not patrial and who enter the United Kingdom from the Republic of Ireland after coming from a place outside the common travel area or after leaving the United Kingdom while having a limited leave to enter or remain there which has since expired are subject to certain restrictions and conditions as to the period for which they may remain and their employment or occupation. By virtue of amendments made to the Immigration Act 1971 by section 39 of and Schedule 4 to the British Nationality Act 1981 which comes into force on 1st January 1983 (S.I. 1982/933) the term “patrial” no longer has any meaning. This Order amends Article 4 in consequence of those amendments.
