Drinking responsibly: the government’s proposals

The consultation sets out how we plan to tackle the problem of alcohol misuse.

We have already taken a wide range of measures to tackle the problem. But the evidence of the recent Alcohol Misuse Enforcement Campaigns demonstrates that this is still not enough. We need to achieve a fundamental change in attitude, so that binge and underage drinking are no longer regarded as socially acceptable because of the problems which can follow in their wake. So we must no longer focus simply on containing or managing the disorder so often associated with excessive drinking but seek to eradicate it.
