Ms Twomey mentioned alcohol. The matter will be covered in the Public Health (Alcohol) Bill 2015. I am of the view that we should have a public health (obesity) Bill when it comes to advertising, especially online. I do not think that we have done enough in this space to tackle the obesity epidemic, notwithstanding the lifestyle choices, sedentary lifestyles etc. that have been mentioned. All of that is hugely relevant and I do not take from that.

Ms Twomey mentioned there has been a high level of compliance in broadcast media.

In the context of what I asked Mr. O'Keeffe, will Ms Twomey comment on how she thinks online issues might be addressed in the short term while we await legislation to regulate?
