Title: Expanded Verification of Eligibility Summary Requirements 
Abstract: Recent comparisons of National data indicate that there are more students certified for free and reduced price meals than there are students eligible for such meal benefits. As a result, the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) plans to propose regulations to address this discrepancy. FNS plans to publish proposed regulations to require local school food authorities to report verification activity and results to their respective State agency to support State agency oversight activities and to allow States to report the school level data to USDA. Results will provide USDA with information that will assist in improving the certification of eligibility for free and reduced price meal benefits. (01-015)
