Representatives of the drinks industry have dissociated themselves from the main report of a Government-appointed group on the regulation of alcohol to be published this week.
The Alcohol Beverage Federation of Ireland and Mature Enjoyment of Alcohol in Society (Meas), an industry-sponsored initiative encouraging responsible consumption of drink, have submitted separate minority reports to Government.
At least four Government Ministers have also objected to recommendations in the report of the National Substance Misuse Steering Group, which Minister of State for Primary Care Róisín Shortall will publish tomorrow.
