The British Nationality Act 1948 was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that created the status of Citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies (CUKC) as the national citizenship of the United Kingdom and its colonies.roadly speaking, nationals of the United Kingdom, the Dominions, and the various British colonies had always shared a common citizenship status of British subject. However, in 1946 the Canadian parliament passed the Canadian Citizenship Act, which established a separate Canadian citizenship.
This momentum eventually led to the passage of the 1965 Immigration & Nationality Act. The Act abolished the restrictive national origins system originally passed in 1924 in favor of a quota and preference system.
