§ Miss Melanie JohnsonI have been asked to reply.
My right hon. Friend the Prime Minister's Strategy Unit, in close collaboration with other Government Departments, including the Department of Health, is currently developing the national alcohol harm reduction strategy. The Strategy Unit is due to publish an interim analysis paper in the summer and its final report setting out the cross-governmental alcohol harm reduction strategy in the autumn. The final report will consider a wide variety of issues including the advertising of alcohol.
