Bernard_Lewis Posted 8 December , 2013 Share Posted 8 December , 2013 Getting a bit bogged down in the above. Were they actually ONE act or two quite separate acts? From snippets on the web they seem very similar in purpose. Bernard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From snippets on the web they seem very similar in purpose. Bernard Difficult to tell but I think they are separate from what I can find: The 'Aliens Restriction Act 1914' which gave powers to restrict what an alien could and could not do http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/lords/1914/sep/10/restriction-of-aliens#S5LV0017P0_19140910_HOL_3 http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/acts/aliens-restriction-act-1914 Whereas the registration act covered the requirement for them to make themselves known and register accordingly. I'll keeping looking and see if I can see anything else. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ss002d6252 Posted 8 December , 2013 Share Posted 8 December , 2013 Considering its legislation passed only a 100 years ago its very difficult to tie it down. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaureenE Posted 2 January , 2017 Share Posted 2 January , 2017 I have just posted the following link on another topic, but I'm posting it here for reference purposes. Aliens (Restriction) Act 1914 by Jonathan Swan Criminal Law and Justice Weekly Vol.180 August 13 2016 https://www.researchgate.net/publication/306082819_Aliens_Restriction_Act_1914 Note however, at the bottom of pages there appears to be at least a line of text missing. It is stated that initially alien enemies were given a short period to leave the country. Cheers Maureen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
