Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether any discussions have taken place with the food industry in the last five years regarding the level of voluntary fortification of food products with folic acid; and whether those levels have changed.

We have no record of discussions with the food industry in the last five years about the level of voluntary fortification of food products with folic acid, and as such, information on whether those voluntary levels have changed is not held by the Department.
