DECLARATIONS RE BRITISH NATIONALITY - NATURALISATION LISTS -- 1947 TROVE TUESDAY 19TH DECEMBER, 2017 SERIES 1

DECLARATIONS OF ACQUISITION OF BRITISH NATIONALITY 

Wikipedia has a great summary as to why these declarations were introduced, as well as the intricacies of British law.

Perhaps this should be essential reading to our Australian political aspirants..

You can read full details of Australian Naturalisation on the National Archives site here

To quote just a little...

When immigrants arrive in Australia they do not have the privileges of natural born subjects. They can however become naturalised to be invested with the rights of a citizen. Prior to 1949, Australians were British subjects. On 26 January 1949 the status of Australian citizen was created when the Nationality and Citizenship Act 1948 came into force.

 So we begin this series with the Declarations as below, from TROVE..
