#nofryzone More exposure on the crazy decision by Wicklow Co Co contravening it's own CDP. 18 months to adopt a #Nofryzone objective which officials did not adhere to. Brings local planning into disrepute. John Paul Phelan Simon Harris TD Eoghan Murphy @DonnellyStephen Louise O’Reilly TD for Dublin Fingal West x.com/phil_moyles/st…

So disappointing to see Phil Moyles #NoFryZone 😤 Wicklow County Council happy to accept ASOI 2018 award & publicity that accompanied - this flies in the face of that & shows what an uphill battle HealthyIreland has to create meaningful environmental change in 🇮🇪 😕 x.com/phil_moyles/st…
Excellent meeting with #nofryzone this evening. Clearly the built environment has a major role on public health. This is recognised in our obesity strategy. Am convening stakeholder forum to decide how best to address this & have asked Phil Moyles to present at this
Simon Harris TD #nofryzone Thanks Simon. Wicklow County Council put NO importance on public health when they ignored #Nofryzone objective RT17 in the CDP. This attitude by planning must change & come from top down. Health of future generations depend on minimising obosengic environment. Strategy must be delivered.
1/2 Sent a letter on behalf of #nofryzone to CEO Wicklow County Council look for him to explain how they granted planning application for fast food outlet just 150m away from 2 schools when #nofryzone objective is clear - no new outlets within 400m of schools.
2/2 Asked him to explain how they still have an award presented to the council at #ASOI2018 for promotion of public health. Wicklow County Council granted permission AFTER receipt of the award and publicised the award in their Countywise magazine. RT to highlight this shocking behaviour.
Movies @ Dundrum why do I need to see 7 options for food/drink combos when I just wanted to buy 2 tickets? #changeourfoodenvironments Irish Heart Foundation Phil Moyles Marita Hennessy Conor Kerley PhD, RD
Planning policy has a role to play. We need No Fry Zones near schools in practice as well as on paper #nofryzone
Excellant points made by Dr Eva & Donal O'Shea at Claire Byrne Live on adult & childhood obesity. More investment is needed in education, healthy eating programs & a nationwide ban on #nofryzone within 400m from schools campuses . HealthyIreland @coolfoodschool

.Alan Farrell noting the challenges re implementation of #NoFryZones and the need for a national uniform policy given difficulties that have arisen in some areas. Role of #nofryzone recognised in highlighting this important issue
Nice recognition of the work of Phil Moyles and the #NoFryZone committee in Wicklow County Council. We won’t be finished until we see full implementation as outlined in our County Development Plan
@safefood_eu @OSheaHoganLab Aoife Hearne RD @karlhenrypt Dr. Eddie Murphy Big fan of #OperationTransformation & all you have done getting the country active with inspirational leaders. Need to address key issues like the Built Environment, promotion & access of unhealthy foods too
