To ask the Minister for Health the status of his engagement with the HSE regarding the implementation of their healthy eating, active living programme; when funding streams will open up for community groups to deliver projects as part of the national obesity plan; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As part of the service plan, my Department regularly meets with the HSE to monitor progress and agree developments. Healthy Eating and Active Living programme is a regular item on their agenda. As the Deputy's question on the issue of funding relates to a service matter, I have arranged for the question to be referred to the Health Service Executive for direct reply to the Deputy on that issue.
