Not too long ago Ryan McNelis wrote to us about the benefit of extending Irish citizenship rights to those beyond the current limitation of having at least one Irish grandparent.
Since then a new group has started at Ning.com, and if you feel a fresh look at the present restrictions is a good idea you can get involved at Irish diaspora for Irish citizenship (you’ll need to join Ning – it’s pretty straight forward).
Maybe also leave a comment here, and if there’s enough momentum i’ll create a mechanism on diaspora.ie where people can register their support for a review of the legislation.
I have returned, this is still an extremely important issue to me, and I still seek to have this issue advanced in the Dail. In the past year, I was very active at politics.ie, but that forum seemed to subside, so maybe this update will be helpful for people like me.
does anyone know how to get access to that ning site? it says members only for me right now.
