question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the potential effect on listed traditional heritage windmills of proposals for the mandatory fortification of flour with folic acid.
tabling member constituency	Sleaford and North Hykeham
tabling member printed	Dr Caroline Johnson
uin	28043
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/03/2020 answer text <p>The recent consultation on the proposed mandatory fortification of flour with folic acid to help reduce neural tube defects in foetuses did specifically ask people to highlight any potential impact of this policy on small and medium businesses. People who responded to the consultation did not have to identify themselves or any sector they may be representing. However, of those who did, 50 identified themselves as working in the heritage/artisan milling sector. Officials from the Department have met with representatives from the The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB) Mills Section and the Traditional Cornmillers Guild and visited wind and watermills to understand at first hand the practicalities around fortification in those premises. We have only the publicly available data on the number of traditional mills; noting that not all buildings manufacture flour as some are museums. Ministers are currently considering the consultation response analysis and further information will be provided in due course.</p> answering member constituency Bury St Edmunds answering member printed Jo Churchill grouped question UIN 28044 28045 question first answered 19/03/2020 17:30:07 answering member 4380 label Biography information for Jo Churchill
