Federation: Govt report on alcohol intake 'a missed opportunity'

The Alcohol Beverage Federation of Ireland (ABFI) has said that a report released today on how to reduce the alcohol intake in Ireland is "a missed opportunity" to address the issue of alcohol misuse.

The National Substance Misuse Strategy Steering Group released the report today which recommended increasing the price of alcohol, including minimum pricing, and curbing the advertising of alcohol products before 9pm.
