Old Scottish Poor Law
The Old Scottish Poor Law was the Poor Law system of Scotland between 1574 and 1845.〔http://www.criticalimprov.com/index.php/irss/article/viewFile/219/253〕
==Origins==
Population growth and economic dislocation from the second half of the sixteenth century led to a growing problem of vagrancy. The government reacted with three major pieces of legislation in 1574, 1579 and 1592. The kirk became a major element of the system of poor relief and justices of the peace were given responsibility for dealing with the issue. The 1574 act was modelled on the English act passed two years earlier and limited relief to the deserving poor of the old, sick and infirm, imposing draconian punishments on a long list of "masterful beggars", including jugglers, palmisters and unlicensed tutors. Parish deacons, elders or other overseers were to draw up lists of deserving poor and each would be assessed. Those not belonging to the parish were to be sent back to their place of birth and might be put in the stocks or otherwise punished, probably actually increasing the level of vagrancy. Unlike the English act, there was no attempt to provide work for the able-bodied poor.〔J. Wormald, ''Court, Kirk, and Community: Scotland, 1470-1625'' (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1991), ISBN 0748602763, pp. 166-8.〕 In practice, the strictures on begging were often disregarded in times of extreme hardship.〔R. Mitchison, ''Lordship to Patronage, Scotland 1603-1745'' (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 1983), ISBN 074860233X, p. 143.〕
This legislation provided the basis of what would later be known as the "Old Poor Law" in Scotland, which remained in place until reforms in 1845.〔R. Mitchison, ''The Old Poor Law in Scotland: the Experience of Poverty, 1574-1845'' (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2000), ISBN 0748613447.〕
