School Meals: Nutrition
Asked by: Ian Roome (Liberal Democrat - North Devon) Tuesday 16th June 2026 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether her Department plans to update the Requirements for School Food Regulations 2014 in line with current dietary advice. Answered by Olivia Bailey - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Education) (Equalities) We are committed to raising the healthiest generation ever and we are consulting on proposed updates to the School Food Standards, closing on 12 June. The changes we propose to make are related to increasing fibre, reducing sugar and further restricting foods higher in fat, sugar and salt, in line with the latest nutritional advice set by the Scientific Advisory Committee on Nutrition.
As part of our public consultation, we are asking schools what support they need to comply with updated School Food Standards. With the planned implementation approach, we are giving schools more than two terms’ notice, which will help them prepare effectively.
We are also working with the sector, including caterers and governing bodies, to develop guidance and identify and share best practice. We will also signpost to useful resources available externally.

Iron and Steel: Import Duties
Asked by: Ian Roome (Liberal Democrat - North Devon) Tuesday 2nd June 2026 Question to the Department for Business and Trade: To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what assessment his Department has made of the potential impact of changes in level of tariff-free steel import quotas from 1 July 2026 on trends in the level of costs to British manufacturing businesses. Answered by Chris McDonald - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) The Government has engaged extensively with manufacturers and wider industry to inform the design of the new steel trade measure, including through ongoing discussions and a Call for Evidence in 2025. The policy has been developed to strike the right balance between securing the future of domestic steelmaking while maintaining secure supply chains. We have set quota levels to reflect the specific needs of the UK steel sector, calibrated against the UK’s production capability and demand levels. The measure only covers steel requirements that can be met in the UK. In some instances, this is not feasible for technical reasons. Where this is the case, quotas have been designed to allow for sufficient imports to ensure these goods continue to be available to UK downstream users without unnecessary additional costs. We will keep the measure under review, including a review after twelve months to ensure it remains effective and fit for purpose. |

Employers are able to negotiate a price for their apprentice’s training and assessment with the training providers, in the knowledge that the funding band sets the maximum that government is prepared to contribute towards the training and assessment for each apprenticeship. |

Public Health: Local Government Finance
Asked by: Ian Roome (Liberal Democrat - North Devon) Thursday 11th June 2026 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether the size of the Public Health Grant provided to local authorities is proportional to the population of each local authority. Answered by Sharon Hodgson - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care) Public Health Grant allocations have been confirmed for the next three years to enable local authorities to plan and make the best use of the funding available. The majority of funding which makes up the Public Health Grant will continue to be distributed as in previous years with an equal percentage uplift, ensuring that the most deprived local authorities continue to receive on average more than twice as much funding per person as the least deprived. During this period, we are also using bespoke methods, which consider deprivation and service need, to distribute the previously separate funding components for smoking and addiction services which have now been consolidated into the Public Health Grant. |

HM Coastguard: Staff
Asked by: Ian Roome (Liberal Democrat - North Devon) Monday 15th June 2026 Question to the Department for Transport: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department has prepared contingency plans against any significant reduction in the number of personnel available to support the Coastguard Rescue Service. Answered by Keir Mather - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport) Public safety remains our priority. Contingency plans are in place to enable the continuation of maritime and coastal search and rescue. Alongside the Coastguard Rescue Service, HM Coastguard will continue to draw upon the full UK Search and Rescue system, including HM Coastguard aviation assets, RNLI and independent lifeboats, independent rescue teams, lifeguards and other emergency services as they do today. HM Coastguard full time officers provide a maritime coordination function from the Maritime Rescue Coordination Centres and the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre responding to distress and urgency alerts across the UK Search and Rescue Region. They undertake the tasking and coordinating of responding assets such as SAR aircraft, lifeboats, other services and the Coastguard Rescue Service. HM Coastguard full time coastal staff provide training, support, welfare to our Coastguard Rescue Officers and act as a national network, providing oversight and tactical support.
Coastguard Rescue Officers undertake cliff, mud, search, and water rescue around the coast and may interact with other SAR responding services such as the RNLI, Lowland and Mountain Rescue, Police, Fire and Rescue and ambulance services. The Coastguard Rescue Service is one of a number of ‘declared services’ to the HM Coastguard maritime function that HM Coastguard can call upon 24/7 as an ‘asset’ in a rescue.
