Processed Cereal-based Foods and Baby Foods for Infants and Young Children (England) Regulations 2003
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if his Department will update the Processed Cereal–based Foods and Baby Foods for Infants and Young Children (England) Regulations 2003.
Answered by Ashley Dalton
Children’s early years provide an important foundation for their future health and strongly influences many aspects of well-being in later life.
It is vital that we maintain the highest standards for foods consumed by babies and infants, which is why we have regulations in place that set nutritional and compositional standards for commercial baby food. The regulations also set labelling standards to ensure consumers have clear and accurate information about the products they buy. We continue to keep these regulations under review to ensure they reflect the latest scientific and dietary guidelines.
