I welcome the Health Service Executive website askaboutalcohol.ie and the information campaign on alcohol as an important first step in enabling individuals to manage their own drinking. This website and the associated campaign will play an important role in providing public health information on alcohol. Simple yet effective tools like the drinks calculator will empower individuals to assess their drinking habits and make informed choices to improve their health and wellbeing. The website will also be an useful resource for health services workers and those working in the field.

The Department has asked the Health Service Executive to reply to you directly in relation to the specific questions you raise in respect of the website and campaign on alcohol.
