The Department of Health has commissioned an All-Ireland knowledge, attitudes and beliefs survey with respect to the public health issues of alcohol and obesity, details of which are to be kept from the drinks industry, Irish Medical Times has learned.
Hawkins House has mandated the Health Research Board (HRB) to hire a market research company to conduct the survey, requiring a minimum sample of 1,000 respondents with an age and gender quota representative of the current adult population to a “very tight deadline”.
The HRB stressed that all interested bidders must disclose if they work with the alcohol industry and give a written undertaking not to disclose any information provided to them by the HRB to members of this industry or those working in association with the industry.
