This policy memorandum authorizes the implementation of the provisions contained in PL 103-448, the Healthy Meals for Healthy Americans Act of 1994, enacted on Nov. 2, 1994.
Among the provisions of Pro-Children Act of 1994 are those which forbid smoking within any indoor facility owned, leased or contracted for the provision of regular or routine health care or day care or early childhood development services to children.
This notice announces the annual adjustments to the national average payment rates for meals served in child care, outside-school- hours care and adult day care centers, the food service payment rates for meals served in day care homes, and the administrative reimbursement rates for sponsors of day care homes to reflect changes in the Consumer Price Index.
On Jan. 6, 1993, the Food and Drug Administration announced in a final rule that, effective May 8, 1994, the current food label reference values, the U.S. Recommended Daily Allowances (U.S.RDAs), will be identified as the Reference Daily Intakes, or RDIs.
As promised at the National Summer Food Service Program and Child and Adult Care Food Program Conference in Baltimore, this memorandum provides a re-statement of the FNS policy regarding the definition of group and family day care homes in the CACFP.
This memorandum follows up on our Oct. 8, 1993 memorandum on day care homes and is intended to reaffirm the policy on rental homes. The memorandum did not specifically address this issue and as a result a number of questions have been asked.
This notice serves to inform the public that Knudson and Sons, Inc., the manufacturer of ``Jamaican Style Lemonade Spritzer,'' "Orange Passionfruit Spritzer,'' and "Orange Spritzer,'' has petitioned FNS to exempt these products from the "Categories of Foods of Minimal Nutritional Value'' under the National School Lunch and the School Breakfast programs.
Section 17(a) of the National School Lunch Act (NSLA) previously allowed the participation of a proprietary Title XX child care center “if such organization receive[d] compensation under such title for at least 25 percent of the children for which the organization provides such nonresidential day care services.”
