The expansion could affect nearly 1 million people, said a U.S. Existing SNAP work requirements apply only to such adults up to age 50. Under the proposal, adults aged 18 to 56 without disabilities or dependents would need to work or participate in a job training program at least 20 hours a week to receive SNAP benefits, also known as food stamps, for more than three months. The House could vote on the plan as soon as Wednesday. The expanded work requirements for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) were included in a plan released last week by Republican House of Representatives Speaker Kevin McCarthy to cut federal spending and raise the debt ceiling. We put our best foot forward.April 25 (Reuters) - Nearly one million Americans could find it harder to access federal food aid under a Republican proposal to expand the program’s work requirements, according to the Biden administration, which has promised to veto the plan if it passes Congress.
He said: “We thought we ticked all the boxes and fingers crossed the inspector thinks we have a good solid plan. The appeal against the planning committee’s decision focused on the fact that the site is already within hearing distance of the M2 and under flight paths. The organic winery will also produce still whites and rosés and use a variety of grapes including pinot noir and chardonnay, securing 1,600 acres for long-term agriculture. “We feel that the Kentish Wine vault is going to be hopefully that statement and is really going to put Kent on the map. Smith said: “What we don’t have is, like other new world or even old world wine regions, is an iconic winery and landmark building that really identifies: ‘That’s a fantastic wine.’ The project had the backing of both the Environment Agency and Natural England before Medway council’s planning committee rejected it last year. The building was designed by architect Lord Foster, whose projects include City Hall and the Millennium Bridge in London, as well as Wembley Stadium.

Smith added that the bubble shape of the visitors’ centre, described as a Teletubby palace by its critics, in a reference to the popular children’s TV show, would provide the English wine scene with greater visibility on the world stage. “We are seeing warmer weather, drier weather in Essex and Kent, which is going to start to allow us to produce the really high-quality stuff that you’ll see coming out now.” “I think English wine is a really an industry that’s in its infancy, and I think it could be huge going forward,” he said. Smith said that while he had not supported the UK leaving the EU it could be a “really good news Brexit story”, as English wine might take advantage of the greater import costs facing vineyards on the European continent.

Most English wine is £30 pounds plus for a bottle. You know, the average price of sparkling wine in the UK is around £13. “Whereas at the moment, there’s quite a lot of English wine that’s out of the reach of normal consumers. If we’re producing up to 5m bottles of wine and a large proportion of that could be prosecco style, we have an opportunity to tap into that market and bring people into English wine. He said: “There’s 80m bottles of prosecco shipped from Italy every year. Smith said that there was an opportunity, if not to “knock prosecco off its perch”, to take some of the market by producing a similar style of English wine at the Kentish Vault through the Charmat method of production where the sparkle is achieved via fermentation in large stainless steel tanks. A decision from the planning inspector is expected within the next few weeks, with Smith planning to roll out a “drink English” campaign if the plans are successful. Smith said, however, that his legal team had backed an appeal and that it had been finalised on 4 April. He hopes the site will produce sparkling whites and rosés that tempt some of the booming British market for Italian prosecco to try homegrown fizz from the garden of England.Ī proposed visitors’ centre attached to the vineyard, along with a restaurant, tasting room and cafe, although built mostly underground, would be located under the plans on green belt land in a designated area of outstanding natural beauty around the village of Cuxton.ĭespite Medway council recommending approval of the plans, last March a planning committee decided that the project and the expected influx of an estimated 300 visitors a day posed too much of a risk to the area’s wildness and natural beauty.
