I am aware that the British government passed laws against Irish Catholics from owning large amounts of property, speaking their language and allowing discrimination in business and employment practices. But did the British government try and use economics to keep the Irish people poor (i.e. did they deliberately sabotage the Irish economy at times) during their administration?

Edit: I guess I am asking is did the British government in London specifically enact measures to prevent native Irish people from generating wealth and building a strong economy? As for Ireland being part of the British economy, areas that are geographically isolated from each other tend to have an economy based off of one area that interact with one another, but are not the same. This is why economic policies have to be a bundle of measures. Since capital for finance, industrialized goods, and markets for cash crops would probably come to Ireland from Britain, and the historic levels of animosity the English had for the Irish, is it impossible to think that London only want Ireland to develop to a certain point?
