Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what his Department is doing to improve access to gluten-free food for people with coeliac disease.
Staple gluten-free foods continue to be available on prescription for people with coeliac disease. We are in the process of making a decision on whether or not to make any changes to primary care prescribing of gluten-free foods following the recent public consultation.
