School Meals Programme
Dail Éireann — 2024-04-25
============================================================

Heather Humphreys (FG), Cavan-Monaghan

Regarding dietary standards, healthy eating guidelines are set out for the suppliers. They must meet certain standards and I would expect them to do that. There are intermittent inspections by my Department in different schools. It is up to the principal and teachers to make sure the appropriate food is coming in because it is being paid for.
