Historia
The York Poor Law Union (1837-1930) was abolished under the Local Government Act 1929. However the Poor Law continued as the main system of welfare until 1948 and was administered by the Public Assistance Committee (1929-1948). Some committees, including the Collecting Committee, had a continuous existence throughout this period of transition and executed similar functions under both the York Poor Law Union and its successor body the Public Assistance Committee.

One of the standing committees of the York Poor Law Union. Responsible for pursuing cases where relatives of a person receiving relief were liable for the cost of that relief. The Committee investigated the circumstances of each case brought before it by the Board of Guardians, the House (Workhouse) Committee and the Relief Committees, for the purpose of establishing whether it was possible to pursue relatives for contributions to relief. Where appropriate, orders were made for payment, which could be enforced through the magistrates' court.
