This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition law requirement that food chains have to have a GF menu, for coeliac disease.
I want anywhere that serves food to have a gluten free/coeliac friendly option. It’s a serious life threatening disease and sometimes it’s easy to be caught out and need to stop for food. A lot of places do not cater to Coeliac needs. Leaving people hungry.
More details
To give equal food options to those who suffer from coeliac disease or any allergies similar. When they get hungry while out to be able to have something proper to eat instead of a drink of water and don’t fruit because a lot of the time that’s the only option.
This petition was rejected
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
It is up to individual food businesses, not the Government or House of Commons, to decide what products sell, including whether this includes a gluten-free option.
Food businesses must already tell customers if any food they provide contain any of certain listed allergens, including gluten, as an ingredient.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
