Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Objectives and Activities in Promoting a Healthy Ireland: Discussion with Nutrition and Health Foundation
2:25 pm
Dr. Muireann Cullen:
Yes. To be honest, we have not approached the other sectors for funding, as we recognise that these are financially constrained times. We have a relationship with the Department of Education and Skills and we liaise with the Department of Health to ensure that our activities are in line with the recommendations and to make the Departments aware of what work we will undertake. We also make the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine aware of what we are undertaking and would like to undertake.
