Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what guidance his Department provides to people who have been advised to avoid folic acid, including people with coronary stents, on how to identify and avoid foods containing folic-acid-fortified flour when eating food prepared by restaurants, cafés, bakeries and other food businesses.

For food sold in restaurants, cafes, bakeries, and other out-of-home settings, consumers who have specific dietary requirements or medical concerns can ask the food business for information about ingredients used in the preparation of food.

On the wider issues raised, I refer the Hon. Member to the answer provided on 17 July in response to Question 18201.
