Pursuit's Take
The Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) cannot ensure that School Food Authorities (SFA) are in compliance with the paid lunch equity and nonprogram foods revenue requirements of the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 (HHFKA).
This occurred because FNS does not have sufficient controls in its Administrative Review Manual to detect SFA noncompliance with those sections. As such, FNS cannot provide assurance that SFA revenues are sufficient to ensure that children with free and reduced price meals receive the full value of Federal funds for healthy nutritious meals.
