Irish Church Disestablishment Act 1869
- Irish Church Disestablishment Act 1869
The Irish Church Disestablishment Act 1869 is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom passed during William Gladstone's administration.
The Act disestablished the Church of Ireland, disassociating it from the state and repealing the law that required tithes to be paid to the Anglican Church of Ireland, a body that commanded the adherence of a small minority of the population of Ireland.
The passage of the Bill through Parliament caused acrimony between the House of Commons and the House of Lords, with Queen Victoria intervening personally to mediate. [ [http://www.royal.gov.uk/output/Page118.asp History of the Monarchy, Victoria] ]
