Proceeding contribution from Kelvin Hopkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
I strongly support the Government's policy on alcohol prices, so will the hon. Gentleman not accept that over several decades the real price of alcoholic beverages has fallen substantially; that that is a major contributor to the current rather excessive alcohol consumption by young people, in particular; and that there are health as well as revenue concerns?
