The Healthy Start programme should be updated in the following ways: a. the value of vouchers should be updated to reflect the level of food inflation and there should be an annual review of value to ensure its real terms value is maintained; b. technical barriers must be resolved within 6 months to support retailers to provide top-ups to families where they wish to do so; c. the age threshold for eligibility should increase to the September at which a child begins school, in order to bridge the gap between Healthy Start and universal infant free school meals; 53 d. All children in households that receive Universal Credit should be eligible, as is the case for free school meals; and e. DHSC should work with the Department for Work and Pensions to set out a plan to resolve data sharing issues and remove legislative barriers to implementing auto-enrolment within 12 months. The plan should include milestones and dates to ensure accountability for progress. (Recommendation, Paragraph 50)
