answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/10/2022 answer text <p>We recognise the need to balance implications costs and benefits to businesses individuals, society and the National Health Service. Following consultation, a number of exemptions were made to ease the impact on businesses where appropriate. The restrictions only apply to products that are high in fat, salt or sugar and are assessed as ‘less healthy’, retailers are free to promote products that are healthier and that are not deemed in scope of the policy.</p><p>The location restrictions on promotions which came into force on 1 October are expected to accrue health benefits of over £57 billion and provide NHS savings of over £4 billion, over the next 25 years. In light of the unprecedented global economic situation, we have delayed the implementation of the volume price promotions by 12-months. These restrictions will come into force in October 2023.</p> answering member constituency Sleaford and North Hykeham answering member printed Dr Caroline Johnson grouped question UIN 60039 question first answered 26/10/2022 12:17:40 answering member 4592 label Biography information for Dr Caroline Johnson

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/02/2022 answer text <p>The impact assessments for restricting promotions and further advertising restrictions for products high in fat, salt and sugar show a positive net present value for each policy, meaning the health benefits outweigh the costs to business and Government.</p><p> </p><p>Following feedback in response to the public consultations on specific policy proposals on the promotions and placement policy, we have extended the implementation period to October 2022 and included an exemption for micro and small businesses and exempted stores below 185.8 square metres from the location restrictions. On the new advertising restrictions, we have included an exemption for small and medium businesses, brand advertising is out of scope and the online restrictions are limited to paid-for advertising, meaning owned media is out of scope.</p> answering member constituency Erewash answering member printed Maggie Throup question first answered 23/02/2022 16:33:02 answering member 4447 label Biography information for Maggie Throup

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/04/2022 answer text <p>The UK Health and Safety Laboratory conducted a small pilot study of a number of technologies used as ‘air purifiers’ as a preliminary indication of the potential for these systems to improve air quality. However, this pilot preceded the COVID-19 pandemic and therefore did not focus on airborne virus control.</p><p> </p><p>While the Scientific Advisory Group on Emergencies undertook a review of existing evidence on the application of UV disinfection, visible light, local air filtration and fumigation technologies to microbial control, it did not make an assessment of technologies supplied by companies. In our earlier answer to Question 496, we stated that Public Health England undertook an assessment of such technologies. However, this information was incorrect and we have amended the record by Written Ministerial Statement on 1 March 2022 <a href="https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fquestions-statements.parliament.uk%2Fwritten-statements%2Fdetail%2F2022-03-01%2Fhcws648&amp;data=04%7C01%7CDavid.Gosling%40dhsc.gov.uk%7C74ba698a24c74d6eab1b08da170bbcb6%7C61278c3091a84c318c1fef4de8973a1c%7C1%7C0%7C637847636423860232%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&amp;sdata=UbDXZQq48LESuf7K4DTkqM%2FURfdzBbX7bWN2KPcxy7w%3D&amp;reserved=0" target="_blank">HCWS648</a>.</p><p> </p><p>The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) accepts submissions from companies for technologies and associated credentials.
