Lord Scriven – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health
The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Scriven on 2016-04-14.
To ask Her Majesty’s Government on what date they were informed that NHS England was considering implementing a sugar tax in NHS premises by 2020.
Lord Prior of Brampton
We have a range of conversations about key issues at Ministerial and official level with NHS England. NHS England is independent and the decision on a sugar levy on the National Health Service estate is a matter for them operationally. We are interested to see the results of their consultation on a sugar levy.
