Hi, David Mcwilliams as far back as 2 years ago in the Generation Game talked about how as a country we can benefit from an alternative source of population growth than strengthens our national identity, given fears of what Mass-Immigration is doing to the Ireland that we all love and cherish.
If there is any major development on this subject, and it needs to be well planned/foolproof to work how about
:
Have strong ancestral ties to the country; Have Predomient Irish Ancestry of (51%+ minimum and nothing lower that counts as only partial descent............... because that will allow the system to be abused.
Have a clean or very minor criminal record of small misdemenours they have since reformed from committing.
Be fluent in English and show the commitment to learn or already hold fluency in Irish............. we want to protect the Irish Language and ensure its growth
Have a good standard of education or have an impressive skillset.................... these will help develop infrastructure and hard/soft-power
Be knowledgeable of Irish History, culture and customs.................... From personal experience, I have met many (Not all for the sake of courtesy) British-Born People of Irish-Descent who have no concept of irish identity at all............ this is one of the most important criterions to meet
These Country's follow more sensible Jus Sanguin Laws than our own stupid one:
Italy
Greece
Japan
