Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of improving labelling on alcohol products on reducing obesity.

We are committed to consult shortly on our intention to make companies provide calorie labelling on all pre-packaged alcohol they sell. The consultation will also cover introducing calorie labelling on alcoholic drinks sold in the out of home sector, for example bought on draught or by the glass. An impact assessment will be published alongside the consultation.
