The Irish Boundary Commission (Irish: "Coimisiún na Teorainne" ) met in 1924–25 to decide on the precise delineation of the border between the Irish Free State and Northern Ireland.
 The 1921 Anglo-Irish Treaty, which ended the War of Independence, provided for such a commission if Northern Ireland chose to secede from the Irish Free State, an event that occurred as expected two days after the Free State's inception on 6 December 1922.
 The governments of the United Kingdom, of the Irish Free State and of Northern Ireland were to nominate one member each to the commission.
 When the Northern government refused to cooperate, the British government assigned a Belfast newspaper editor to represent Northern Irish interests.
The Ulster Banner (Ulster-Scots: "Ulstèr Bannèr"; Irish: "Meirge Uladh" ) is a heraldic banner taken from the former coat of arms of Northern Ireland, consisting of a red cross on a white field, upon which is a crowned six-pointed star with a red hand in the centre.
 It was the flag of the former Government of Northern Ireland and common flag of Northern Ireland from 1953 until that government was abolished in 1972.
 It was adopted to mark the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, and was first flown over Parliament Buildings on 1 July 1953, in honour of the Queen's visit.
 The Minister of Home Affairs announced that, while the Union Jack was the only standard officially recognised, those who wished to have a distinctive Ulster symbol might use the banner.
 Since 1972, the Ulster Banner has had no official status and is not used by the current Northern Ireland government or by the British government.
 However, the Ulster Banner is still in common use by loyalists/unionists, and to represent Northern Ireland internationally in some sporting competitions.
 It has become a symbol of Ulster loyalism and is a contentious symbol.
 In recent years there have been calls for a new, neutral flag for Northern Ireland to replace the Ulster Banner.
