The Deputy is right. I am even hearing from people in the arts that, since Covid, people are not going to the theatre as much. People are engaging in different types of activity and their patterns have changed. Staying at home and drinking may be an issue. We need to do more about this topic. I would be open to suggestions from members. We have to look at how people socialise now. It always comes down to awareness campaigns and education programmes, but the Deputy is correct about people socialising differently and about our response to same. Minimum unit pricing will help.
