Martin imposes six-pint-a-week limit to fight binge-drinking
The Government move comes following widespread concern about binge-drinking and the worrying fact that we drink more alcohol than any other nation.
Under radical measures to counter our national drink problem, quantities of alcohol consumed will be recorded on an individual swipe card and those exceeding the limit, will be penalised by having to pay special penalties ranging from €100 to €10,000.
