European Commission has published proposals for the "`Health Check'" reforms of the EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). This is an important review of the CAP that could potentially have significant implications including enhancing the delivery of environmental benefits through farming for the environment and for cutting prices for consumers. To help inform the UK's approach to negotiations, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has launched a consultation on the EU proposals, which closes on 1 September 2008.

The Government has published a Youth Alcohol Action Plan aimed at tackling teenage drinking which is open to consultation until 7 July 2008.
Draft plan
Press release

The Cancer Reform Strategy 2007 announced the Government's intention to consult on the next steps in tobacco control, the further regulation of tobacco products, and to consult with stakeholders on measures to reduce the significant harm to health caused by smoking for those who are addicted to nicotine and not able to quit altogether. This consultation is the first step in developing a new national tobacco control strategy. The consultation closes on 08 September 2008.

If you are interested in this you may like to know that the Smokefree Action Coalition (that consortium of health bodies that successfully campaigned for smokefree legislation in England) launched a new campaign for a comprehensive tobacco control strategy. Please visit the new website www.smokefreeaction.org.uk to sign up to the campaign and receive advice and evidence for your own responses to the DH consultation. The website has a new members zone with restricted access to a range of useful resources.
