The default is for sqlite3 to ignore foreign key contraints.

To enable them, add the following -

pragma foreign_keys = on;

It works for me.

Unfortunately it has a limitation, which they acknowledge but they say is 
unlikely to be addressed. You can access more than one database concurrently 
by using the 'attach' command, and qualifying a remote tablename as 
{database} dot {tablename}. You can then include the remote table in any sql 
command. However, it will not enforce foreign key constraints across 
databases.
