===Northern Ireland=== In 1921, with the establishment of [[Northern Ireland]], lord lieutenants continued to be appointed through the [[Governor of Northern Ireland]] to the [[counties of Northern Ireland|six counties]] and the two [[county borough]]s of [[Derry]] and [[Belfast]]. Whereas in 1973 the counties and county boroughs [[Local Government Act (Northern Ireland) 1972|were abolished as local government units]], lord-lieutenants are now appointed directly by the King to "counties and county boroughs ... as defined for local government purposes immediately before 1 October 1973".
