It expanded the membership of the NNC to include the Departments of Budget and Management (DBM), Labor and Employment (DOLE), Trade and Industry (DTI), and National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA). The Department of Social Welfare and Development was named chair of the NNC Governing Board.

1988
Administrative Order No. 88 named the Department of Agriculture as the NNC Chair of the NNC Governing Board.

2005
Executive Order No. 472 named the Department of Health (DOH) as the chair of the NNC, with the Department of Agriculture (DA) and the Interior of Local Government (DILG) as vice-chairs. In addition to its policy and coordinating functions, NNC was also tasked to focus on hunger-mitigation and authorized to generate and mobilize resources for nutrition and hunger-mitigation programs.

Ang NNC GB Resolution No. 1, s. 2022 mao ang resolusyon diin ang NNC Governing Board nag -adopt sa "National Policy on Nutrition in Emergenciesโ€ o NiE.

Ang mga member-agencies sa NNC Governing Board gasiguraduhon ang epektibo ug episyenteng implementasyon sa polisiya.

Gibase kini sa panginahanglan nga maprotektahan ang nutrisyon sa mga tawo labi na kung naay mga emerhensiya, kalamidad o disaster nga makaguba sa pagkaon, kalimpyo, serbisyo ug kinabuhi sa komunidad โ€” diin labi na ang mga vulnerable: bata, buntis, breastfeeding mothers, tigulang, PWDs, indigenous peoples, ug uban pa.
