Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what steps she is taking to help tackle food waste in Lincolnshire.

This Government supports tackling food waste through WRAP’s UK Food and Drink Pact and Food Waste Reduction Roadmap, helping businesses measure, reduce, report waste and increase surplus food redistribution. Defra also allocated £13.5 million through the farm surplus fund to help charities redistribute more surplus produce from farms.
