Labour proposes banning high caffeine energy drink sales to under-16s due to health concerns.

Labour plans to ban the sale of high caffeine energy drinks, such as Monster and Prime, to under-16s due to concerns about their impact on children's health and concentration in classrooms.

National trading standards would be expected to enforce the policy.
