Wales implements junk food display ban in supermarkets
The Welsh Parliament has approved new regulations aimed at addressing obesity by restricting the sale and promotion of unhealthy foods, particularly those high in fat, sugar, and salt. Under these rules, unhealthy snacks like chocolates and sugary drinks will be banned from being displayed near checkouts and promotional deals such as buy-one-get-one-free will be limited. The regulations, which will apply to larger retailers but exempt small businesses, are intended to reduce impulse buying and improve public health, especially among children. Health Secretary Jeremy Miles emphasized the importance of making healthier options more accessible and visible. However, the measures have faced criticism from opposition parties, with some arguing they are either too lenient or overly restrictive. The new rules are set to take effect in March 2026, following a narrow vote in the Senedd.
