Poor Law Amendment Act 1834 Short Term Effects

For my History A2 Inquiry I am doing the question:

"What were the Short Term Effects of the Poor Law Amendment Act 1834 in regards to those receiving relief?"

For this I am identifying the Short Term Effects of The Poor Law Amendment Act and what how these consequences effected the poor.

Currently I have identified the following four components to base my Inquiry on. They are:

Decrease in Poverty Rate:

Decrease in Quality of Life for Poor:

Increased Support for Reform:

Decrease in Government Expenditure on Poor Law due to administrative reforms:


based on what I have shown, can anyone tell me where I am perhaps going wrong, or recommend any websites or books for me to read?

Any other help would also be much appreciated. Ill rep the most helpful and all that :biggrin:
