§ Rev. Martin Smythasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what provision is being made to assist parents denied free school meal facilities for their children due to industrial action.
§ Mr. DunnComprehensive information is not available about the alternative arrangements made by local education authorities where industrial action by teachers is preventing them from fulfilling their duty to provide free meals to certain pupils. I understand that in some instances arrangements are being made to provide a meal in the form of a packed lunch.
