Which Act did Castlereagh believe should have accompanied the creation of a United Kingdom?

  • Act of Uniformity

  • Catholic Emancipation

  • Act of Supremacy

  • Act of Settlement

Answer

Castlereagh believed that the Act of Union should have been accompanied by the Catholic Emancipation Act, which would have granted Catholic Irish citizens the right to vote and hold public office. Castlereagh argued that this was necessary in order to create a truly united kingdom, and that it would help to prevent future sectarian conflict.
