Martin condemns vodka sachets
Mr Martin and Justice Minister Michael McDowell were joined by groups representing publicans, off-licences and breweries in condemning the potential harm of the drink. The cellophane pouch which contains a 30ml shot of the spirit is on sale for €1.50.
“I am very concerned about the vodka sachets and would regard it as an unacceptable development. It runs counter to attempts to combat underage drinking,” Mr Martin said.
