The NHS in England is legally required to fund medicines recommended by NICE, usually within three months of final guidance.</p><p>NICE published guidance in May 2022 recommending romosozumab for treating severe osteoporosis in people after menopause who are at high risk of fracture.

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/05/2022 answer text <p>The department spends around £600 million per year ensuring around 1.3 million infants enjoy a free, healthy, and nutritious meal at lunchtime following the introduction of the universal infant free school meal policy in 2014. The per meal rate of £2.34 per child was increased in the 2020/21 financial year. The funding rate for the 2022/23 financial year will be published with the funding allocations in June.</p><p>The department holds regular meetings with other government departments and with food industry representatives, covering a variety of issues including public sector food supplies. Schools are responsible for the provision of school meals and may enter individual contracts with suppliers and caterers to meet this duty. We are confident that schools will continue providing pupils with nutritious school meals as required by the school food standards.</p><p>The department routinely considers contingency arrangements and expect schools and catering companies supplying them to do the same.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince grouped question UIN 220 221 223 224 question first answered 16/05/2022 12:03:07 answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince
