Title: Report From The House of Commons Select Committee On Infant Life Protection -1908
Author: Infant Life Protection Act
Seller: Max Rambod Inc. (United States)
Description: 1908. Report From The Select Committee On Infant Life Protection, viii+ 99 pp., original blue paper wrappers, with separately printed Index. 14pp., [London], Ordered, by the House of Commons, to be Printed, 1908. The passing of the Infant Life Protection Act was partly in response to concerns about 'baby farming'. The Act required parents to register voluntary foster placements with the Neglected Children's Department and pay for the upkeep of the child or risk the child becoming a ward of the state. An infant was defined in this Act as any child under five years of age. The Infant Life Protection Act 1890 introduced greater regulations and requirements to birth parents and to foster care providers in relation to the care and maintenance of the child, and requirements for registration of licensed premises. In 1907, the enacting of the Infant Life Protection Act transferred the administration of infant life protection measures to the Chief Secretary and the Department for Neglected Children, later known as the Children's Welfare Department in the Chief Secretary's Department.
