• Ulster
– Would be able to opt out of the Treaty – so could end up being
partitioned permanently.
– A Boundary Commission would be set up to examine the boundaries
of Ulster and make recommendations.
• The powers of the new Irish state
– Southern Ireland would have dominion status – granted Ireland the
same powers as Canada and other Dominions within the Empire. This
was not independence. This meant full control of domestic affairs,
membership of the Empire and the Irish would have to swear
allegiance to the Crown.

Arguments for & against the Treaty
Northern Ireland and Its Neighbours
since 1920 by S. Gillespie & G. Jones,
Hodder & Stoughton,, 034062034X, p. 23
We have got peace which is what the people
want.
You may have peace but where is the
Republic we have fought for from 1916?
We are able to set up our own government
and rule ourselves.
Your powers are limited while you stay
in the Empire and have the King as head of state.
An oath of loyalty to the King has
no meaning.
We swore an oath of loyalty to the Republic
and we will not swear an oath to the King.
This is a step towards independence. We will
take other steps and become fully independent.
Britain will continue to interfere in Ireland's
affairs unless you remove her power completely.
We are not in a position to start another war
with Britain.
We will still have British troops
In our country.
