HC Deb 13 July 1868 vol 193 cc1102-3
MR. FLOYER

said, he wished to ask the Secretary to the Poor Law Board, Whether, in pursuance of the intimation given in the last Animal Report of the Poor Law Board, it is intended to issue any further regulations for the administration of relief to Vagrants?

SIR MICHAEL HICKS-BEACH

, in reply, said, the Poor Law Board made considerable inquiries and collected a good deal of information as to the state of vagrancy; and he hoped before long, as the result of those inquiries, the Poor Law-Board would be enabled to issue an Order providing uniformity with regard to the diet, lodging, and work of vagrants.
