A national nutrition strategy framework is being developed by my Department but it is not possible at this stage to say when it will be published. However, a number of the strands which will form part of an overall strategy in relation to nutrition have been developed and continue to be developed on an ongoing basis. These include the issue of guidelines on nutrition and healthy eating to specific groups such as hospitals and schools.
