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.
