We have been in communication with the Free State Government on this very question of citizenship. If any deportee claim that he, is domiciled in Great Britain, and does not intend to take up Irish citizenship, and desires on that account to be dealt with in this country, and not by the authority of the Free State, such representation will be immediately considered by either the Home Secretary or the Secretary for Scotland, as the case may be.
