or pass any vote, resolution, address, or Bill for the raising or
appropriation for any purpose of any part of the public revenue of
Ireland, or of any tax, duty, or impost, except in pursuance of a
recommendation from Her Majesty signified through the Lord-Lieutenant in
the session in which such vote, resolution, address, or Bill is proposed.

from making laws relating to certain subjects, that Legislature may, with

appointed by Her Majesty on the joint recommendation of the
Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland and the Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain.

this Act shall be removable only by Her Majesty on address from the two
Houses of the Imperial Parliament, and shall receive the same salaries and
pensions as those payable at the passing of this Act to the existing
judges of such division, unless with the assent of Her Majesty in Council
first obtained, the Irish Legislature alters such salaries or pensions,
and such salaries and pensions shall be paid out of the moneys carried to
the Customs and Excise account in pursuance of this Act, and if the same
are insufficient shall be paid out of the Irish Consolidated Fund, and if
