AANA slams junk food ad ban on first day of SA rollout
The South Australian Government’s ban on junk food ads on public transport comes into effect today, July 1, but confusion surrounds how ‘junk food’ is defined and what meets the eligibility criteria.
In January, Peter Malinauskas’ Labor Government proposed a ban of junk food advertising on government assets across Adelaide — buses, trams, and trains — as a way to tackle the growing obesity problem in the state.
There have been calls for other state governments and Canberra to adopt similar bans.
