Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health and Children

Tackling Obesity: Discussion with Operation Transformation

11:30 am

Ms Monica Percy:

We can see all around the country the enthusiasm and the energy around following "Operation Transformation" and villages and towns all over Ireland walking every night. I would like to see it on a continuous basis, not just for the duration of the programme. I hope that in March and April people - children, adults, everyone - will still be marching on the roads at night-time, which they are doing now. It would be brilliant.
