Recommendation 12

12 Paragraph: 85

Government delays restrictions on unhealthy food multibuy deals, hindering obesity efforts.

Conclusion
We were extremely disappointed that during the inquiry, the Government delayed the introduction of restrictions on multibuy deals on food and drinks high in fat, salt, or sugar, including buy-one-get-one-free deals. It is essential that the Government prioritises interventions that provide a healthy environment, rather than focusing solely on individual action. We are frustrated that the Government has not made more progress in tackling the obesity crisis in our population.
