The state of Ireland asserts universal jurisdiction and extraterritorial jurisdiction in various situations. Ireland has universal jurisdiction for murder and manslaughter committed by its citizens. This dates from at least 1829, retained by the Offences against the Person Act 1861, as adapted in 1973. Some international conventions to which the state is party require universal jurisdiction, as reflected in the enabling legislation. Examples include the the International Criminal Court, and the UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime.
