Nursery Milk Scheme

EDM number 2697 in 2010-12, proposed by Alan Meale on 06/02/2012.
Categorised under the topics of Health education and preventive medicine and Schools.

That this House is deeply concerned about planned changes to arrangements for the delivery of the current Nursery Milk Scheme which is likely to affect the numbers of children who drink free milk in school nurseries; is aware that under present arrangements schools, nurseries, parents, staff and suppliers work together to ensure the provision of free school milk to all under five year olds; and commends the work of the organisation Cool Milk to highlight the importance of young children's access to milk, together with other activities aimed at ensuring that any changes to the scheme do not result in fewer children having access to this important sustenance in their classroom.

This motion has been signed by a total of 28 MPs.
