Supporting documents:

Minutes:

The Committee considered the petition and noted that, in the absence of new research evidence and in light of the responses from the Welsh Government and the Food Standards Agency, there are limited ways to take the petition forward further. Members therefore agreed to close the petition, but while doing so they would also write to Professor Adam Fox OBE, a national expert in paediatric allergy, to highlight the petition and seek his comments. Any response would be noted by the Committee and published.
