Mrs. Curtis-Thomas

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department in which areas the alcohol harm reduction strategy will be implemented. [146313]

Ms Blears

The Prime Minister's Strategy Unit published an interim analytical report on the harms associated with alcohol misuse on 19 September 2003. This report identifies the following broad areas of policy intervention: education, information and communication; supply and pricing; health and treatment services; and community safety and criminal justice. The findings of this report will be used to inform development of the Government's alcohol harm reduction strategy, which will cover all areas of England.
