PHONE-IN

A Scottish Government consultation, due to close today, has been asking for the public's views on proposals to make calorie labelling on menus mandatory in food outlets such as businesses, takeaways, restaurants and hospitals. The idea has been put forward to help reduce obesity in Scotland which, with two-thirds of the population recorded as being overweight or obese, continues to be one of the country's biggest public health challenges. But BEAT - the UK's leading eating disorder charity - is calling on the ScotGovt to scrap the plan. They say the move could have a damaging impact on people recovering from or living with eating disorders.

Stephen asks - Would you like to see calories on menus in Scotland?
