Fairer & clearer pricing & information on first stage infant formula
Following on from the Dispatches documentary it’s become clear that all infant milks need to have the same basic ingredients by law in the UK. Why then are we paying various different prices for infant first stage milk when the most expensive doesn’t mean it’s the best for our babies?
Formula companies have found a loophole in the UK marketing regulations by creating “Stage 2” milks which are no different to the first stage milks.
Parents need clearer information from our healthcare providers and formula companies to make it clear what we are buying.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand you're concerned about the price of, and information about, infant formula but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the UK Government or Parliament to do. You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you'd like to happen. We can only accept petition which call for actions that are the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
