§ Mr. Alex CarlileTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what research has taken place into the connection between food additives and juvenile crime; and if he will make a statement.

The Department's research and planning unit is currently considering the possibility of funding a small-scale study on links between diet and crime as part of a wider programme of research on juvenile offending.
