Report on the Employment of the Poor in Ireland 1822
The Select Committee reports on distress in Ireland, noting that famine and disease prompted generous relief but stressing the need for employment to prevent dependency. It cites evidence on labor shortages, wage practices, and the impact of land tenure, with recommendations toward extending linen production, public works paid in money, and locally administered loans while examining Owen’s plans and emigration.
