Question
To ask the Scottish Government whether it will provide an update on the Good Food Nation Bill.
Answer
In April 2020 we announced that a prioritisation of legislation was required owing to the Covid-19 pandemic. A decision was taken not to introduce the Good Food Nation Bill in the last Parliamentary session owing to the need to focus on critical legislation.
We look forward to introducing the Good Food Nation Bill as soon as is possible in this Parliamentary term.
