To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the Answer of 27 January 2021 to Question 141632, whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of a laddered approach to the Nutrient Profile Model that looks more favourably on products that are closer to scoring as healthy.
Public Health England was asked by the Department to review the United Kingdom Nutrient Profiling Model 2004/5 to bring it in line with current UK dietary recommendations. Full detail on the review will be available once published shortly.
