Summary
Calorie Labelling (Out of Home Sector) (England) Regulations 2021 Lord Bethell moved that the draft Regulations laid before the House on 13 May 2021 be approved. Then Baroness Bull moved, as an amendment to the motion, at the end to insert “but that this House regrets that they may not have their intended effect of addressing concerning levels of obesity in the United Kingdom; further regrets that their introduction will have negative and damaging consequences to those living with, or at risk of developing, eating disorders; further regrets that they do not reflect the views of experts and those with lived experience of eating disorders and do not take an integrated public health approach to obesity and eating disorders; and calls on Her Majesty’s Government to commit to timely reviews of the impact of these regulations not only on obesity, but on eating disorders, as such disorders have the highest mortality rate of all mental health illnesses in the United Kingdom." After debate, the amendment was withdrawn. Then the original motion was agreed to.
