Why was the new poor law unsuccessful in improving the condition of the poor?
1.the terrible conditions in poorhouses kept many poor people away.
2.the poor law was implemented in urban areas and not in rural areas.
3.the majority of poor people were unaware of the existence of poorhouses.
4.the poorhouses had very strict admission standards, so many people were turned away.

The correct answer is:

1. The terrible conditions in poorhouses kept many poor people away.

Explanation:

The new Poor Law was established in 1834 to replace the old Poor Law because poor people in England that were fully capable of working were asking for help instead of working. The government created the new Poor Law in which workhouses, also known as poorhouses had terrible conditions to avoid giving benefits to people capable of working, and to save money. This harsh conditions kept poor people away from workhouses, and became a failure because the country was facing a recession and it was not easy to find jobs, and the alternative (workhouses) was worst.
