“It’s reassuring to see the Committee reiterate the importance of tackling childhood obesity which has reached a devastating high. We agree that a range of actions are needed to protect our children’s health.”
“Current loopholes in junk food marketing restrictions leave children exposed to unhealthy food and drinks during the programmes they watch the most; so we especially welcome the Committee’s recommendations to extend these restrictions to include prime time TV shows. We look forward to seeing the government adopt further measures to help fight the obesity crisis.”
