The Good Food Nation Bill has been introduced to the Scottish Parliament. This aims to achieve a vision of Scotland as a Good Food Nation where:
- it is the norm for Scots to take a keen interest in their food, knowing what constitutes good food, valuing it and seeking it out whenever they can
- people who serve and sell food – from schools to hospitals, retailers, cafes and restaurants – are committed to serving and selling good food
- everyone in Scotland has ready access to the healthy, nutritious food they need
- dietary-related diseases are in decline, as is the environmental impact of our food consumption
- Scottish producers ensure that what they produce is increasingly healthy and environmentally sound
