§ Mr. D. E. Thomasasked the Secretary of State for Wales what is his latest estimate of the number of children in Wales entitled to free school meals; and what is the actual number receiving them.
§ Mr. John MorrisIn October 1974 free school meals were provided for 56,200 children in Wales. No figures are available of the number entitled to such meals, but in England and Wales as a whole it is estimated that about 80 per cent. of those eligible for free school meals actually receive them.
