MEDSCAPE - Consumers International Blog: Failures of NCD meeting at UN: No targets. No commitment. No rules. Oct 31, 2011

Consumers International Blog: Failures of NCD meeting at UN: No targets. No commitment. No rules.: "By Indrani Thuraisingham, Head of the CI Office for Asia Pacific and the Middle East.
No targets. No commitment. No rules.
These were the reasons why the United Nations Political Declaration of the High-level meeting on the prevention and control of non-communicable diseases at the General Assembly in September was met with disappointment by consumer campaigners.
There were no time-bound goals or targets to eliminate industrially produced transfat in food and to discourage the production and marketing of unhealthy foods."
