Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what recent representations the Government has made to the European Commission on the future regulation of health food supplements.
The United Kingdom has not recently made any representations to the European Commission on the future of health food supplements.
Officials continue to engage at European Commission Expert Working Group meetings to ensure that any future changes to legislation are proportionate and based on evidence, so that consumers have confidence in what they buy, while maintaining a wide choice of safe products.
