Read the passage. The priorities of the R. C. M. (Refugee Children's Movement) now focused on the administration and care of those children who had arrived before the outbreak of war. By April 1943 the number of children according to the R. C. M.'s annual report totalled 8274. The Guardianship Act was passed in 1944 to provide care for those children who were not adopted, unmarried or under the age of 21. This was to ensure that those children who arrived in Britain to escape Nazi persecution would continue to be supported.
