HC Deb 28 October 1988 vol 139 c443W
Mr. Frank Field

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what action he proposes to take in the light of the industry forecasts report on trends in alcohol consumption, a copy of which has been sent to him.

Mrs. Currie

We have not had time to study the report "Trends in Alcoholic Drink Consumption in the United Kingdom." Government action to combat alcohol misuse is being carried forward by the ministerial group on alcohol misuse under the leadership of my right hon. Friend the Lord President. We will make copies of the report available to all members of the group in due course.
