Before SCHWAB, C.J., and FOLEY and THORNTON, JJ.


SCHWAB, Chief Judge.

Petitioners appeal from orders of a hearing officer of the Public Welfare Division that had the effect of reducing the amount of food stamp benefits they receive. The issues raised involve the validity of the administrative regulations that produced this result and interpretation of some of those regulations. We hold the regulations valid, but agree with petitioners' contentions that they were incorrectly interpreted by the hearing officer.
