Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when he plans to bring forward legislative proposals to make out-of-home calorie labelling mandatory, as proposed in his Department's July 2020 policy paper,Tackling obesity: empowering adults and children to live healthier lives.

The Department has consulted on how the policy on calorie labelling for food and drink served outside of the home should be enforced and is considering what the final enforcement position should be. We are looking to introduce legislation in early 2021.
