Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Public Health and the Commercial Determinants of Health: Discussion

Ms Janis Morrissey:

On colour coding, food labelling is a really important element but if a person is someone who is of low literacy levels and does not have the wherewithal to even look at a food label, and if the person is thinking about what he or she can afford today to feed the family, they are the factors that come to the fore not what is written on the label. A label is a much smaller part of the solution here.
