New USDA Rules Food Service For Child Programs Regulations of the U.S. Department of Agiicultuies child nutrition progianis are being revised to allow schools and other Federally-assisted child feeding activities to use cominerical food service management companies. In announcing the changes, Assistant Secretary of agricultuie Richard E. Lyng, said "we hope to encourage food service compainies to find innovative ways to get meals into inner city schools that lack caietenas and to get meals to rural schools that lack facilities and transportation. "We hope to reach as many additional needy children us possible. 1 Resident Nixon and the delegates to the recent White Ikhisr Conference on Food, Nutntion and Health, ha\e urged action to make these programs a more effective delivery system in the drive to eliminate poverty-related hunger and malnutrtion in this country." The amended regulations were published in the Federal Register on February 28 and will become effective on April 1, 1970. USDA child feeding ptogrums affected by these amendments include the National School Lunch Program, Special Mdlk Program, School Breakfast Program and the Special Food Service Program fur Children. Mr. Lyng added, "To help rea* h our national goal of eliminating hunger and malnutrition, we have evaluated ail available resources that could make a contribution, including the use of the skills and capacities of food service management companies. Accordingly, we have developed new regulation establishing the policies and standards under which food service compainiM may be authorized to conduct food service in schools and service institutions receiving Federal food assistance." The amendentments require that when local schools or institutions elect to contract for food service with food service management companies such contiacts include provisions for the kt eping of program operation books and records by the company tn enable the scoohl or institution, to meet its program responsibilities and to keep the records available for inspection and audit purposes In addition, the contract must include provision that Federally donated commodities are %tsed only for the benefit of the school or institution’s feeding operation and utilized therein. Under the new Federal regulations the existing Federal, State, and local school oooperau.e arrangements and responsibilities that have worked so well over the years will remain unchanged.
