Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to ensure the safety of infant formula.
Answered by Steve Brine
The manufacture of powdered infant formula and formula foods in the United Kingdom is comprehensively regulated by European Union legislation. Manufacturers must comply with requirements covering product safety as well as composition and nutritional appropriateness.
Manufacturers of these products in the UK are inspected on a routine basis by local authorities to monitor compliance. Manufacturers must inform the relevant authorities if unsafe products are placed on the market. Risk management processes exist within manufacturers and relevant authorities to remove products and investigate incidents.
