- Answer
-
As set out in the 10-Year Health Plan, by the end of this Parliament, we will introduce mandatory healthier food sales reporting for all large companies in the sector. The plan also committed to introduce new targets to increase the healthiness of sales, and to engage the Food Strategy Advisory Board on sequencing.
We intend to launch a full public consultation soon to gather a wide range of views on our policy proposals. Final decisions on policy design and implementation will be taken following consultation.
