I don't think it's a Government tax issue, getting them involved would just mean another price increase for the consumer. Added sugar is the same as salt and is in pretty much everything. The nutritional coding on products specifies the various contents so ultimately the responsibility is up to the consumer to make purchases relevant to their needs. A novel idea for producers which would be handy for the consumer is to include the amount of exercise a person would need to undertake in order to counteract the effect of the sugar intake per 100ml/gm after consumption.
