Do you agree that no bagged savoury snacks other than nuts and seeds (without added salt or sugar) should be sold in schools?

Do you think that the only other drinks available should be bottled water (still or sparkling), skimmed or semi-skimmed milk, pure fruit juices, yoghurt and milk drinks (with less than 5% added sugar), drinks made of combinations of these e.g. smoothies, low calorie hot chocolate, tea and coffee?

Question 6

Do you agree that artificial sweeteners could be used in yoghurt and milk drinks only?

How could schools best manage the practical implications of moving to these proposed standards?
