Food: Waste
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, if he will introduce mandatory food waste reporting before the end of 2024.
Answered by Mary Creagh
The Government is committed to setting a clear roadmap to a circular economy – a future where our resources are used as efficiently and productively as possible for as long as possible, and waste is reduced. Preventing food waste will be a key part of this work, and the Department is reviewing a range of issues associated with food waste in the supply chain, including mandatory food waste reporting requirements. These will be announced in due course.
