Bill Tracking, Additional Documents Chamber Status

Amend the bill by striking out everything after the enacting clause and before the summary and inserting the following:

‘Sec. 1. 20-A MRSA §6601-A  is enacted to read:

§ 6601-A.  National School Lunch Program; Internet-based school meal applications

The department shall make information available to public schools regarding Internet-based applications for eligible students for free or reduced-price meals under the National School Lunch Program under 7 Code of Federal Regulations, Part 210. A public school may make an Internet-based application available for school meal applications. If a public school implements an Internet-based application process under this section, the public school shall make available a paper application for school meals to any student, parent or legal guardian who requests one.’

SUMMARY

This amendment is the majority report of the committee. The amendment requires the Department of Education to make information available to public schools regarding Internet-based applications for eligible students for free or reduced-price meals under the National School Lunch Program as in the bill, but removes the requirement that the department develop the application. The amendment specifies to whom a paper application must be made available if a public school implements an Internet-based application process.
