Minimum unit pricing for alcohol will affect 14% of drinkers - study

A new study has found that minimum unit pricing for alcohol will affect 14% of drinkers and that the cheapest alcohol products were favoured by the heaviest drinkers, irrespective of income levels.

Research led by the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland and the Health Research Board examined the relationship between high-risk drinking, personal income, place of purchase and price paid for alcohol.
