Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs

Tackling Childhood Obesity: Discussion (Resumed)

9:30 am

Mr. Michael O'Keeffe:

No, we are talking about restrictions. Drink was mentioned as well and this is similar. There is a restriction on the amount of alcohol advertising permitted and the same applies to high fat high sugar food advertising. When we say the maximum is 25%, it would rarely be anywhere approaching that.
