Summary:imageThis report is a summary of the SDC’s work to date, outlining the key findings of the Sustainable Development Commission’s work on sustainable food procurement to date. Our initial work has focused on procurement by the National Health Service (NHS), but we draw out issues of concern and recommend a number of actions, which are relevant to other public bodies, including local authorities and government departments, and even private companies.
