When your finished move your license to Ireland. I understand if you do a valid FAA type revalidation, Ireland will put it on your EASA ticket, with an N reg restriction or some such. The key being it keeps your ATPL open (not necessarily valid) and stops you losing credits. The B300 may be OK for this. The UK treatment of this does not seem so favourable.
Caveat I have not completed my conversion, but got this info from an European expat.
