A Proposed Plan For The Equalization Of The Poor Rates: Throughout The Various Parishes Of The United Kingdom Of Great Britain And Ireland is a book written by Gilbert Linney Hutchinson in 1846. The book is a proposal for a plan to equalize the poor rates across all parishes in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The poor rate was a tax levied on property owners to provide relief to the poor and needy. Hutchinson argues that the current system of poor rates is unfair and inefficient, as some parishes have to pay more than others. He proposes a system where the poor rate is calculated based on the value of property in each parish, rather than the number of poor people in the parish. This, he argues, would ensure that the burden of the poor rate is shared equally across all parishes. The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the social and economic conditions of the United Kingdom in the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
