Commons ChamberI thank the hon. Lady for her questions. She makes penetrating points, as always. As the father of a daughter with allergy problems, I assure her that I take such things incredibly seriously. I have recently come to this post—we have worked together on issues such as the ivory ban—and she can rest assured that I will be taking this matter up with the utmost seriousness and will tackle it as a matter of urgency.
When will we make it a requirement to label halal and kosher products as such to better inform consumers who may or may not wish to buy such products?
I will come back to my hon. Friend with further thoughts when we can meet to discuss that matter further.
