Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs

Tackling Childhood Obesity: Discussion (Resumed)

9:30 am

Mr. D.O. O'Connor:

It depends on the complexity. We have a junior and a senior cycle. There are some challenges as to how we get to the fifth and sixth classes, which require some modifications and slightly different programmes. It depends on how complex we make it, and, again, we want to keep it as simple as possible so it is easy to adopt. We are probably looking at the same amount again to get to all schools.
