This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Rejected petition No minimum pricing for alcohol
More details
We urge the Government to abandon its plans for minimum alcohol pricing.
This policy represents an unfair and unwarranted interference in the operation of the market. It will have a significant impact on the budgets of responsible drinkers on modest incomes, and encourage smuggling and the illegal production of alcohol.
