This would allow the British government the right to vet ecclesiastical appointments to the Roman Catholic Church in the United Kingdom in order to ensure that only ‘loyal’ clerics were appointed. This timorous attitude was vigorously denounced by Daniel O’Connell. He rejected the veto, believing that it was vital to maintain the freedom of the Catholic Church from interference by a British government. To do otherwise would be a retrograde step, back to the days of the penal code. In 1821 a Catholic Emancipation Bill (including the veto) actually obtained a majority in the House of Commons, but was rejected by the Lords.
