These Regulations further amend the Welfare Food Regulations 1996 (the principal Regulations) consequent on the introduction of working families' tax credit with effect from 5th October 1999. Amendments to regulations 7 and 8 of the principal Regulations limit entitlement to purchase 900 grammes of dried milk per week at a reduced price to those entitled to family credit awarded with effect from a date falling before 5th October 1999 and extend that entitlement to those entitled to working families' tax credit, where the appropriate maximum is not reduced below £70, or to members of the family of such persons.
