Vouchers provided for those on free school meals
The education minister says they'll look to widen the availability of meal vouchers, should the current three-week lockdown get extended.
It's as the Free School Meal Voucher Scheme is only valid in Shoprite and Co-op.
The vouchers act as compensation to those who normally receive free school meals.
Dr Alex Allinson says at this stage no other supermarkets accept them:
