The Scottish Government has published an independent analysis of the responses to the consultation on the national Good Food Nation plan. The report presents the findings from the public consultation and explains the methodology that was used to analyse the responses.
The Good Food Nation Team have been using the responses to the consultation to help inform the national Good Food Nation Plan, including amending the draft to reflect the feedback received in the consultation. The amended draft will be laid before the Scottish Parliament for their consideration and comment. This will be accompanied by a statement outlining the steps taken to consult, and how the responses have been considered. The Scottish Parliament will have an opportunity to consider and comment on the draft Plan before final publication.
The Good Food Nation (Scotland) Act 2022 places duties on Scottish Ministers to produce a national Good Food Nation (GFN) Plan of their policies in relation to food. This first draft national Plan represents how the Scottish Government (SG) intends to use the powers and levers it has to work collectively with people, communities, businesses, agencies and organisations to meet GFN ambitions. These plans will also have to set out the main Outcomes to be achieved in relation to food-related issues, the policies needed to do this and the measures that will be used to assess progress.
