To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the Answer of 30 December 2020 to Question 112092 on Obesity: Devolution, whether his Department has discussed, with a focus on obesity in the devolved nations, the delivery of UK-wide measures in the Government's 2020 obesity strategy with (a) patient and (b) professional organisations.

We have been careful to consider the views of wide range of stakeholders including individuals, professional bodies and experts from across the United Kingdom as we developed our plans for implementing the healthy weight strategy including in response to specific policy proposals.

Officials in the Department are in regular contact with their counterparts in the devolved administrations on United Kingdom-wide measures in our strategy, such as front of pack nutrition labelling on food and drink.
