Text

I thank the Minister for his answer. Minister, that is great news. There will be parents watching today who have children, as you rightly cited, with severe allergies and are very passionate about the issue. There are a number of parents in my constituency, particularly mums, who have children with such allergies, and I have met them on a number of occasions.
Would you agree to meet them, Minister, to outline the consultation that you have announced today and hear some of their concerns and what they have to deal with on a day-to-day basis?
