Can anyone
help?
I'm trying to find a published
copy of the Royal Commissions on child labour 1832/1833 . The investigation
was done by A. Austin, and it was evidence from this that informed the Factory
Act of 1833. I've come across small sections of the evidence in several books,
but frustratingly much of it focuses on Yorkshire and I am looking for evidence in
Lancashire/North West. I believe that there were several select committees
& Royal commissions on child labour carried out in the early/mid 19th
century. If anyone knows where I can find copies, please let me know.
Many thanks in
advance!
