Charities decry lottery funding of school meals plan
A row has broken out over the proposed use of £45m of lottery money to fund the government's programme to improve school meals.
The Big Lottery Fund has denied that the earmarking of its money for the new Schools Food Trust breaks its promise to keep National Lottery funds independent from government spending
The Schools Food Trust, the £60m quango announced by the education secretary, Ruth Kelly, this week to advise schools on healthier school meals, is part of the government's pledge to spend £280m on improving food in schools.
...
The news of the funding comes just days after Stephen Dunmore, the chief executive of the Big Lottery Fund, told Society Guardian that the fund would draw the line at bailing out statutory services and that "we've always said we don't want to fund activities that take place throughout the school day".
