# The Welfare Food Amendment Regulations 1991, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Welfare Food Regulations 1988 (“the principal Regulations”).
Regulation 2 amends the definition of clinic for England and Wales to include a clinic operated by an NHS trust.
Regulation 3 increases the price of dried milk payable by persons entitled to purchase it under the principal Regulations from £2.85 to £3.10 and makes an associated amendment in respect of the amount payable by the Secretary of State where through his act or omission a person is unable to purchase dried milk at a reduced price. The increase is consequent on the annual uprating of benefits under section 63 of the Social Security Act 1986 (c. 50).
Regulation 4 removes five brands of dried milk from the list of dried milks specified for the purposes of the principal Regulations and adds two additional brands to that list.
Regulation 5 revokes previous regulations the provisions of which are superseded by Regulation 3.
