MARRIAGE OF BRITISH SUBJECTS (FACILITIES) ACT 1915 - SECT 1

1.(1) Where His Majesty is satisfied that the law in force in any part of His
Majesty's dominions outside the United Kingdom makes due provision for the
publication of banns or for the giving of notice in respect of marriages
between British subjects intended to be solemnized or contracted in the United
Kingdom, and for the recognition... of certificates for marriage issued by
registrars in Ireland as sufficient notice in respect of marriages between
British subjects intended to be solemnized or contracted in that part of His
Majesty's dominions, His Majesty may by Order in Council declare that this
section shall apply to that part of His dominions, and in such case

(a)where a marriage is intended to be solemnized or contracted in the United
Kingdom between a British subject resident in... Ireland and a British subject
resident in that part of His Majesty's dominions, a certificate of the
publication of banns or a certificate of notice of marriage issued in
accordance with such law shall in... Ireland have the same effect as a
certificate for marriage issued by a registrar in... Ireland; and

(b)where a marriage is intended to be solemnized or contracted in that part of
His Majesty's dominions between a British subject resident in that part and a
British subject resident in... Ireland, a certificate for marriage may be
issued in ... Ireland by a registrar, in the like manner as if the marriage
was to be solemnized or contracted under circumstances requiring the issue of
such a certificate, and as if both such British subjects were resident in...
Ireland,...
