Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether he (a) has made and (b) plans to make a further assessment of the potential merits of joining the School Meals Coalition.

The government does not currently intend to join the School Meals Coalition, although we are engaged with several initiatives that resulted from the UN Food Systems Summit last year.

At this time, no further assessment of the merits of joining the School Meals Coalition is planned.
