Summary

Key Points:

As part of its inquiry into food supply during the Coronavirus pandemic, the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (EFRA) Select Committee today launches an online survey , inviting the public to share their experiences of accessing food during the outbreak.
Whether you are self-isolating and struggling to get food deliveries, medically vulnerable and getting Government food parcels, struggling to afford food, or not finding any problems in getting the food you need, we would like to hear from you.
The Committee launched the inquiry, which will examine areas including access to healthy food during periods of self-isolation, and how disruptions in the food supply chain should be managed, on Friday 3 April.
It will use the results of the survey to inform its questioning of retailers, food producers and the Government.
