The newly released US action plan for breastfeeding is a good place to
start. It is impressive and so are the references! Pat

Subject: Reviews of infant nutrition policies currently underway?
Canada is currently reviewing its infant nutrition recommendations.
http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/fn-an/consult/infant-nourrisson/index-eng.php
Recently on Lactnet it was mentioned that Australia is also reviewing its
infant feeding guidelines.
In the BMJ article clarification issued this morning the authors of that
research indicate that the UK is reviewing its policies.
"“We are pleased that the Department of Health has now asked the Scientific
Advisory Committee on Nurtrition (SACN) to review its policy on infant
feeding, as part of which they will review this paper alongside other
emerging evidence."

Are there any other reviews of infant nutrition
policy/recommendations/guidelines underway in the developed world?
