| dbo:abstract | The Census Act 1800 – also known as the Population Act 1800 – (citation 41 Geo. III c.15) was an Act of the Parliament of Great Britain which enabled the first Census of England, Scotland and Wales to be undertaken. The census was carried out in 1801 and has been repeated almost every ten years thereafter. The 1801 census estimated the population of England and Wales to be 8.9 million, and that of Scotland was 1.6 million. Ireland was not included in the census until 1821. The first census of England had been carried out by William I and published in the Domesday Book in 1086. Various other censuses had taken place, such as that in the sixteenth century, in which bishops were asked to count the communicants or number of families in their dioceses. In the latter part of the eighteenth century, there were several proposals for a Census Bill and a growing concern about the population of Britain and its demand for food, particularly fuelled by the publication, in 1798 of Thomas Robert Malthus's An Essay on the Principle of Population. The Census Bill was presented to Parliament on 20 November 1800, passed on 3 December and received Royal Assent on 31 December. The first census was held on Tuesday 10 March 1801. (en) O Census Act 1800, também conhecido por Population Act 1800, foi um Ato do Parlamento da Grã-Bretanha que possibilitou o primeiro Censo da Inglaterra, Escócia e País de Gales. O Censo foi realizado em 1801 e repetido, em grande maioria das vezes, a cada dez anos, ou seja, em anos terminados em 1. O censo de 1801 estimou a população da Inglaterra e Gales em 8,9 milhões e a da Escócia em 1,6 milhão de habitantes. A Irlanda não foi incluída nos censos britânicos até 1821. O primeiro censo da Inglaterra foi realizado por Guilherme I e publicado no Domesday Book em 1086. Vários outros censos ocorreram, como o do século XVI, nos quais os bispos eram solicitados a contar o número de famílias em suas dioceses. Na última parte do século XVIII, houve várias propostas para um Censo, com uma crescente preocupação com a população da Grã-Bretanha e sua demanda por alimentos, principalmente impulsionada pela publicação, em 1798, de An Essay on the Principle of Population, de Thomas Malthus. A lei para aplicação do Censo foi apresentada ao Parlamento Britânico em 20 de novembro de 1800 e aprovada em 3 de dezembro do mesmo ano, recebendo o Consentimento Real do rei Jorge III em 31 de dezembro. Sua realização se deu em 10 de março de 1801, uma terça-feira. (pt) |
