Make baby formula easily affordable for all UK families
People are stealing baby formula in the UK due to the rising prices. We want the government to make baby formula easily affordable/available for all UK babies.
For the health and well-being of all babies in the UK. It shouldn’t be an item people simply can not afford.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
Decisions about the price of formula milk are a matter for manufacturers and retailers, not the UK Government or Parliament.
In certain cases a GP might prescribe an appropriate infant formula. Decisions about when to make a prescription for infant formula are a clinical matter for individual clinicians.
