Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs

Tackling Childhood Obesity: Discussion (Resumed)

9:30 am

Mr. Mike Neary:

We also give pedometers. We have them set up whereby if it is for exercise there is a drinking bottle when getting exercise and a pedometer so one can measure the number of steps one takes. The lunch box is for healthy eating. The idea of the reward is to encourage healthy eating practice if one uses the rewards.
