The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to the consultation entitled Updating labelling guidance for no and low-alcohol alternatives, published on 28 September 2023, whether his Department plans to take steps to update labelling guidance for no and low-alcohol alternatives.

A consultation published in 2023 considered options for updating labelling guidance for no and low alcohol alternative drinks.
