The Department has launched the public consultation on the development of a new Obesity Strategic Framework inviting the public to share their views on a new Obesity Strategic Framework – ‘Healthy Futures’ which aims to create the conditions that enable and support people to improve their diet and participate in more physical activity and reduce the risk of related harm for those living with overweight and obesity.
The consultation seeks views on the vision, principles, and themes developed by the Project Board and approved by our previous Health Minister, and through work with stakeholders and other interested parties. The consultation is open until 16 February 2024.
At the same time, the Department is consulting on a Proposed Regional Obesity Management Service (ROMS) for Northern Ireland. The ROMS consultation can be found at https://www.health-ni.gov.uk/consultations/proposed-regional-obesity-management-service-roms-northern-ireland.
