Conclusion
Throughout our inquiry we have seen examples where time and time again policy that has been designed to protect and improve children’s health and the health of the population is delayed or diluted in the face of threats from the food industry about the impact on food prices, jobs or the economy. Governments have consistently chosen to put those interests ahead of 58 health interests. This government cannot continue that pattern. It must be bolder and show unwavering commitment to the cause of preventing obesity. (Conclusion, Paragraph 148)
