Health, Social Care and Sport Committee

Food Standards Scotland

Meeting date: 24 January 2023

Evelyn Tweed

Yes. Thanks, convener. I want to come in on a point that you raised and to which Geoff Ogle responded on supermarkets’ profits at this time. I read a really interesting article in the business pages of The Sunday Times recently that suggested that the profits had to be considered, because it was still felt that they were too high, even in the present circumstances with Brexit and Ukraine. What can we do? Earlier, you said that you were speaking to various retailers and others. What more can we as politicians do to get into that?

Mr Arthur, how can you ensure that there will be an open and accessible relationship with the HR organisation given that it is external?

I was just going to say that it would be helpful if the FSS could keep highlighting to us what the issues are.

There is a load of good information there about diet, eating healthily and looking after your health. It is all great. How do you know that your message is getting out? How do you measure success?

You should use us to help you with that messaging. When you have your targets in place, tell us what they are and we can also share the website. Now that I have seen what a great website it is and the information on it, I will certainly be sharing it and asking people to use it.

I want to ask about vitamin D. You said that you are promoting the use of vitamin D from October to April. That is great, but what do you say to people now, when money is tight and they may not see it as an essential?

Yes, thanks, convener. Will you say more about the HR approach and how it will work with the rest of the organisation?

Mr Dunlop, you said that your job was to hold Cricket Scotland to account. You talked about the special measures and what you are doing now. How will you do that in the long term?

Petitions

Good morning to the cabinet secretary and panel. How do winter pressures impact rural health boards differently from urban health boards? We have touched on that, but can those pressures be predicted and can we plan for them?
