Supporting Healthy Choices: A Framework for Voluntary Action

Summary

84. This framework clearly sets out our ambition for changing the Scottish diet and firmly sets the direction of travel we believe is necessary to encourage and support healthier choices in Scotland.

85. We recognise that some of the action set out in this framework will be challenging and that change will take time. Working in partnership across Government, both local and national, the food industry and the third sector will be essential if we are to realise our goals and deliver the scale of change that is required.

86. With this framework, we invite food and drink industry businesses to join us on this journey. By signing up, partners can publically demonstrate their support and commit to taking specific voluntary action to support the Scottish population to make healthier dietary choices.
