Synopsis

This book presents the evidence and findings resulting from an investigation into the working of the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834. The report includes the results of an inquiry into the administration of the Poor Law, the evidence of witnesses, and the report of the Select Committee appointed to inquire into the administration of the relief of the poor. This book is valuable for researchers studying early responses to industrial poverty and the treatment of the poor during the Industrial Revolution. It remains impactful in modern debates on welfare and how best to aid the less fortunate, proven by its use as evidence by the House of Commons’ Select Committee on the Poor Laws.
