Résumé : | here is much talk about the need for policies to be evidence-based; an admirable objective but not easily achievable, as illustrated in this article with reference to policies to improve diets. The evidence base requires estimates of policy effectiveness (the impact of policy on diets), of the impact of dietary change on health, and an estimate of the cost-effectiveness of the measure. Each is problematic. Randomised Control Trials are not suitable for estimating policy effectiveness in a market environment so alternative statistical approaches have used existing secondary data, but these approaches suffer from a lack of longitudinal data, the need to use data collected for other purposes, and the absence of harmonised data across Europe. |
