Motion Text
That this House acknowledges the valuable support provided to vulnerable and disadvantaged pupils during the covid-19 pandemic by the provision of free school meal vouchers; recognises the difficulties schools and parents are facing due to problems with the Edenred system in the provision of the vouchers; and calls on the Government to urgently address those difficulties by working with Edenred to resolve the deficiencies in the current system or urgently implementing a suitable alternative.
