  "text": "(This note is not part of the Order)\nThis Order enables the Kingston-upon-Hull City Council to provide meals, milk and other refreshments free of charge to pupils attending primary and special schools and pupil referral units which it maintains.\nUnder article 1 the Order only has effect in respect of the authority and the schools as defined, and will last for three years.\nArticle 2 amends section 512ZA of the Education Act 1996 by replacing the duty to charge with a power to charge, while preserving the requirement that where a charge is made it must be the same for identical quantities of the same item. Articles 3 to 6 make consequential amendments to provisions of the Budget Regulations and the FMS Regulations.\nArticle 3 enables the authority to retain centrally all expenditure on meals without affecting the limit on central expenditure. Article 4 removes the option for schools to have the funding delegated, and omits references to former grant-maintained schools as there are none in the area of the authority. Articles 5 and 6 ensure that the effect of the minimum funding guarantee on schools' delegated budgets is not adversely affected by the retention.\nArticle 7 grants an exemption from the requirement to consult before 1st April 2004 on changes to the formula consequent on the making of this Order.\nA full regulatory impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of business.",
