answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/03/2016 answer text <p>To help small schools with the transition to universal infant free school meals (UIFSM), we have paid them an extra £32.5m over two years, on top of general spending on the policy which amounts to around £600m a year. In the recent Spending Review we also protected funding for UIFSM at £2.30 a meal. We are not aware of any school that is unable to meet its statutory obligations to provide free school meals either to its infants or to older children in receipt of qualifying benefits.</p> answering member constituency East Surrey answering member printed Mr Sam Gyimah question first answered 09/03/2016 10:35:21 answering member 3980 label Biography information for Mr Sam Gyimah
