As the media has frequently referred to the 'ban on below cost' sales as 'minimum pricing', below we attempt to clarify the key distinctions between the two pricing approaches.
Some further reports on pricing measures include:
- The University of Sheffield's modelling of minimum pricing
- The IFS pricing report calling for increased taxation
- NICE guidance calling for minimum pricing
- A SABMiller commissioned report by the CEBR outlining arguments against minimum pricing
- SNP pages on minimum pricing and the Scottish Alcohol Bill.
- An interim report on Manchester's proposed local minimum pricing
- BMJ report urging a VAT reduction for the on-trade
- Aberdeen University research arguing minum pricing does not target lower income groups
I think that the Alcohol policy in many places and situation needs to be changed. For example, at sporting events and other similar activities.
