The Institute of Alcohol Studies have released a new report, Binge Drinking in Europe. The comprehensive document considers the picture of binge drinking in Europe, its impact, and recommendations on how it should be addressed. The report is particularly pertinent when considering regulation on marketing and availability, which the Prime Minister Gordon Brown is set to make further announcements on this year. The report also examines the role of education, health care interventions and the cost effectiveness of various approaches to addressing binge drinking.
