Finance Bill 2003 [ Certified Money Bill ] : Second Stage.
2:30 pm
John Paul Phelan (Fine Gael)
I was amused to hear some people say this measure would help to reduce the level of under age alcohol consumption and that it was good the Government was increasing the cost by 35 cent. However, it will not have any effect. If the Government is serious about the problem of alcopops, then it must do better than imposing a price increase of 35 cent.
