8.—(1) Any person who is unable to purchase dried milk to which a child is entitled under regulation 7 for a period (“the missing period”) as a result of a failure to receive from the Secretary of State evidence as to entitlement to family credit, may apply to an office of the Department of Social Security in writing for a payment.
(2) If the Secretary of State is satisfied, on an application under paragraph (1), that the failure to receive evidence of entitlement was the result of some act or omission on his part, he shall pay the applicant an amount equal to the difference during the missing period between—
(a)the lowest price payable for 900 grammes of a dried milk preferred by the applicant at the nearest convenient clinic to where the applicant lives; and
(b)the price at which the applicant would have purchased 900 grammes of dried milk under regulation 7 but for the failure,
multiplied by the number of weeks in the missing period.
