View answerMy Department provides facilities for a canteen service for staff in a number of locations but it is not directly involved in the provision of meals or in the running of these facilities. Arrangements for the provision of services in these facilities are put in place by voluntary committees of staff in the locations in question.
I am ensuring that the issue of using Fairtrade products is being brought to the attention of the various committees.
