A note for the New Ulster Movement from Dr Maurice Edward Bathurst on the legal bases of partition in Ireland, 12 May 1971

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

M.E. Bathurst, in a detailed examination dated 12 May 1971, outlines the legal foundations and implications of the partition of Ireland. The document traces the historical and legal instruments that established Northern Ireland's separate status, including the Government of Ireland Act 1920, the Articles of Agreement for a Treaty between Great Britain and Ireland in 1921, and the subsequent 1925 Agreement. Bathurst discusses the international legal perspectives on these agreements, noting that while they may not fit the strict definition of treaties, they have been treated as binding and have shaped the territorial and political landscape. The analysis also addresses the Republic of Ireland's objections to partition, including claims of duress and the assertion of a unified Irish nation, ultimately concluding that the partition has been recognized and upheld by international practice and law.
