About Henry Bishop

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 follower of Jeremy Bentham, the English philosopher. The recommendations of the Royal Commission's report were implemented in the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834.
