Public Health (Alcohol) Bill 2015: Committee Stage (Resumed)
10:30 am
Tim Lombard (Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
The Senator is right. Unfortunately, it is probably well below cost price. I have a concern about minimum unit pricing that does not concern its effectiveness but its timing. If the timing of this will be some time in the future, we need to look at a measure like the groceries order which will, hopefully, put a floor on the level of alcohol.
