Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Martin Linton (Labour), on Thursday, 6 December 2007, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 53 members in total.
SUPER STRENGTH LAGERS
That this House recognises the serious damage to health and premature deaths caused by consumption of super strength lagers containing 9 per cent. alcohol; notes that they encourage excess consumption since each 500ml can contains 4.5 units of alcohol which is more than the Government's recommended daily alcohol limit; and calls on the Government to curb their sale by taxing super strength lagers at a higher rate, thus saving the lives and improving the health of many homeless people with alcohol addiction problems.
