Why do you think the clause in the Factory Act might have stipulated that an employer could not be penalized more than once for the same infraction? Why does the inspector feel he would be justified in penalizing Taylor, Ibbotson, and Co. more than once?

In 1833 the Government passed a Factory Act to improve conditions for children working in factories. Young children were working very long hours in workplaces where conditions were often terrible. The basic act was as follows:

no child workers under nine years of age

employers must have an age certificate for their child workers

children of 9-13 years to work no more than nine hours a day

children of 13-18 years to work no more than 12 hours a day

children are not to work at night

two hours schooling each day for children

four factory inspectors appointed to enforce the law

However, the passing of this act did not mean that the mistreatment of children stopped overnight. Using these sources, investigate how far the act had solved the problems of child labour.
