The Poor Law Amendment Act 1834 (PLAA) known widely as the New Poor Law, was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom passed by the Whig government of Earl Grey. It completely replaced earlier legislation based on the Poor Relief Act 1601 and attempted to fundamentally change the poverty relief system in England and Wales (similar changes were made to the poor law for Scotland in 1845). It resulted from the 1832 Royal Commission into the Operation of the Poor Laws, which included Edwin Chadwick, John Bird Sumner and Nassau William Senior. Chadwick was dissatisfied with the law that resulted from his report. The Act was passed two years after the Representation of the People Act 1832 extended the franchise to middle class men. Some historians have argued that this was a major factor i

  • قاد القلق من ازدياد تكاليف المساعدات وتولي حكومة ليبرالية جديدة الحكم في سنة 1830 برئاسة (Earl grey) إلى تأسيس لجنة لتعديل قانون الفقراء في سنة 1832. كانت هذه الحكومة الجديدة اقرب للمدن ومهتمة بالصناعة وبالطبقة المتوسطة الناشئة. وضعت هذه اللجنة سنة 1834 الورقة البيضاء المؤلف من 8000 صفحة كمستند مرجعي لقانون مقترح صوت عليه البرلمان في نفس السنة.وقد اعتمد هذا القانون على ثلاث مبادئ أساسية 1- الذي يرى أن الزيادة السكانية أعلى من الموارد المتاحة2-مبدأ ريكاردو Ricardo الذي وضع 3- Bentham الذي يرى أن الناس ستبحث عن المساعدة بدلا من البحث عن العمل في حال كانت المعونات قريبة من الأجور (ar)
  • La New Poor Law (littéralement Poor Law Amendment Act), Nouvelle loi sur les pauvres, est un texte de loi britannique de 1834 modifiant l'ancienne loi d'assistance aux pauvres (Act for the Relief of the Poor dite Poor Law) de l'époque élisabéthaine. Cette nouvelle loi, qui fait suite au Reform Act 1832, mettait fin à l'assistance à domicile aux indigents, considérée comme trop onéreuse et instituait leur enfermement en workhouses, selon le principe de less eligibility (les conditions dans le cadre de l'assistance devaient être moins bonnes que celles envisageables dans le cadre d'un emploi salarié). Les enfants orphelins étaient nombreux parmi les indigents de l'époque victorienne. Leurs conditions de vie, qui n'avaient rien de réjouissant, ont inspiré à Charles Dickens son roman Oliver Twist, publié sous forme de feuilletons entre 1837 et 1839. L'importance de la New Poor Law a décliné avec l'apparition de l'État-providence au XXe siècle. En 1948, elle a été annulée par le (en), qui a créé le (en) pour l'aide aux plus pauvres. (fr)

It resulted from the 1832 Royal Commission into the Operation of the Poor Laws, which included Edwin Chadwick, John Bird Sumner and Nassau William Senior. Chadwick was dissatisfied with the law that resulted from his report. The Act was passed two years after the Representation of the People Act 1832 extended the franchise to middle class men. Some historians have argued that this was a major factor in the PLAA being passed. The Act has been described as "the classic example of the fundamental Whig-Benthamite reforming legislation of the period". Its theoretical basis was Thomas Malthus's principle that population increased faster than resources unless checked, the "iron law of wages" and Jeremy Bentham's doctrine that people did what was pleasant and would tend to claim relief rather than working. The Act was intended to curb the cost of poor relief and address abuses of the old system, prevalent in southern agricultural counties, by enabling a new system to be brought in under which relief would only be given in workhouses, and conditions in workhouses would be such as to deter any but the truly destitute from applying for relief. The Act was passed by large majorities in Parliament, with only a few Radicals (such as William Cobbett) voting against. The act was implemented, but the full rigours of the intended system were never applied in Northern industrial areas; however, the apprehension that they would be contributed to the social unrest of the period. The importance of the Poor Law declined with the rise of the welfare state in the 20th century. In 1948, the PLAA was repealed by the National Assistance Act 1948, which created the National Assistance Board to act as a residual relief agency. (en)
  • Poor Law Amendment Act 1834, eller PLAA, var en parlamentsakt i Storbritannien, som rörde fattigvården (utom Skottland, som förändrade sin fattigvårdslag 1845). Den ersatte gamla Poor Law från 1601. Därför kallas den ibland New Poor Law. På vissa ställen försökte man genom fattigstugorna få människor att avstå söka hjälp, då framför allt många irländare sökte hjälp under den stora svälten på Irland. I Charles Dickens bok Oliver Twist kritiserades systemet. (sv)
