These figures include the premises and mobility factors so are not directly comparable to the local authority figures provided above.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/03/2018 answer text <p>We estimate that providing free school meals to all children from households receiving Universal Credit would result in around half of all pupils becoming eligible for free school meals – over three times as many as the 1.1 million (14%) that are eligible for and claiming free school meals in the latest figures[1]. We estimate that this would cost in excess of £3 billion more a year, including the cost of the extra meals and associated school deprivation funding, such as the pupil premium – the additional meal costs alone would be in excess of £450 million per year.</p><p> </p><p>Costs in each of the next four years will be lower than this as the proportion of the pupil population living in households receiving Universal Credit will be lower prior to the completion of rollout. We have not provided precise estimates for the next four years as we believe the level of uncertainty around these figures means that releasing them would not be in the public interest.</p><p> </p><p><strong><br> </strong></p><p>[1] <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/eligibility-for-free-school-meals-and-the-early-years-pupil-premium-under-universal-credit" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/eligibility-for-free-school-meals-and-the-early-years-pupil-premium-under-universal-credit</a></p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 19/03/2018 17:45:53 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

The government has committed to laying a report before Parliament on the outcome of the consultation. Submissions are being considered and a government response will be published in due course. Just as it was right to consider in depth the evidence around these questions, it is important that we apply equally careful consideration to formulating our response in such a complex policy area, with such vitally important implications for the safety and welfare of children.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Scarborough and Whitby answering member printed Mr Robert Goodwill question first answered 31/10/2017 17:25:39 answering member 1562 label Biography information for Sir Robert Goodwill
