[QUOTE="Redman7, post: 1058091, member: 83960"] I dont think that is silly at all. When you say ancestry, do you mean your grandparents? As it must be your parents or grandparentsfor tge ancestry rule to apply.. im not sure on the history of emigration in SA but Ireland has a long history of emigration with communities all over the world. Most irish people will have cousins living in the UK/US/Australia. While obviously a lot of these integrate into their new countries, they remain proudly irish and their children often see themselves as irish. The rule is there to allow people like these represent the country of the parents or grandparents. I think this is only fair. Not many people will fall in to category and lt less soulless than the residency rules. [/QUOTE]
