IMO conference begins today

The annual conference of the Irish Medical Organisation will get underway in Co Kerry later.

Doctors will debate more than 80 motions over three days, including several relating to Ireland's obesity problem.

One calls on the Education Minister to consider introducing Leaving Cert points for students who take part in P.E and sport in school.

Another motion calls on the Government to ensure all drivers are tested for alcohol following a crash in which someone has been hurt, even if they are unconscious.

Health Minister James Reilly will address the conference on Saturday.
