GOVERNMENT HEALTH WARNING ON CHILDREN'S FOOD

Motion Text

That this House notes that one in three children is now categorised as overweight and one in nine obese; further notes that diabetes and heart disease will increase among teenagers resulting in thousands of premature deaths and disabilities in the next generation; and calls on the Government to devise, as it has done in a different environment with cigarette and associated tobacco sales, a health risk logo to be part of all food advertising aimed at children.
