Chief Secretary for Ireland

Chief Secretary for Ireland

Der Chief Secretary war eine Schlüsselperson der britischen Verwaltung in Irland. Formell war er die Nummer zwei in der Verwaltung des Lord Lieutenant, praktisch saß aber oft der Chief Secretary im britischen Kabinett und nicht der formell höher gestellte Lord Lieutenant.

Das Amt wurde 1922 abgeschafft und die Kompetenzen dem President of the Executive Council of the Irish Free State (heute Taoiseach) übertragen.
