Royal Commission into the Operation of the Poor Laws 1832
The 1832 Royal Commission into the Operation of the Poor Laws was a group set up to decide how to change the Poor Law systems in England and Wales. The group included Nassau Senior, a professor from Oxford University who was against the allowance system, and Edwin Chadwick, who was a Benthamite. The recommendations of the Royal Commission's report were implemented in the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834.
== Formation ==
The formation of the Royal Commission was announced in by Viscount Althorp in the House of Commons on February 1, 1832; the body initially consisted of 7 commissioners and 16 assistant commissioners.〔Leon Levy (1970) ''Nassau W. Senior, 1790-1864: Critical essayist, classical economist and advisor of governments''. New York: A.M.Kelley, pp.81-83〕 The central board was expanded to 9 commissioners in 1833. The assistant commissioners were to be sent out to the country to collect data on poverty by visiting parishes and by having people respond to questionnaires, while the central board were to digest the information into a report.
The findings of the Poor Law Commissioners, published in 13 volumes, began appearing in February 1833.〔〔
〕 They were used to argue that the existing system of poor relief needed a radical overhaul.
