| 释义 |
The Poor Act of 1555 was a law passed in England by Queen Mary I.[1] It is a part of the Tudor Poor Laws. It extended the Poor Act of 1552 and added a provision that licensed beggars must wear badges. The provision requiring badges was added to shame local community members into donating more alms to their parish for poor relief.[2] References1. ^2 & 3 Ph. & M. c. 5 {{Poor Law}}2. ^Paul Slack, The English Poor Law 1531-1782 59--60 4 : English Poor Laws|Acts of the Parliament of England (1485–1603)|1555 in law|1555 in England |
