This Order prescribes, for the purposes of section 512ZB of the Education Act 1996, that where a person or their parent is in receipt of universal credit on or after 6 September 2013, they are within section 512ZB(4).
Persons within section 512ZB(4) are eligible for free school lunches and milk when a request has been made by them (or on their behalf) that these be provided free of charge.
1996 c.56. Section 512ZB was inserted by section 201 of the Education Act 2002. Subsection (4)(a)(ai) was inserted by section 31 of, and paragraphs 37 and 39(a) of schedule 2 to the Welfare Reform Act 2012. Subsection (4)(b)(ai) was inserted by section 31 of, and paragraphs 37 and 39(b) of schedule 2 to, the Welfare Reform Act 2012. By virtue of section 512 of the Education Act 1996, "prescribed" in section 512ZB means prescribed by the Secretary of State by order.
The functions of the Secretary of State were transferred to the National Assembly for Wales by the National Assembly for Wales (Transfer of Functions) Order 1999 (S.I.1999/672) and then to the Welsh Ministers by paragraph 30 of schedule 11 to the Government of Wales Act 2006 (c.32).
Section 512ZB(4) uses "C" to mean the person for whom eligibility for free school lunches is being determined.
