These Regulations also prescribe, for the purpose of section 457(4)(b)(iii) of the Education Act 1996, that where C's parent is entitled to Child Tax Credit but not to Working Tax Credit and is receiving Child Tax Credit based on an annual income not exceeding £16,190, C is entitled to free school lunches.
