Pub bosses have been warned that the government might consider minimum alcohol pricing as part of its public health efforts. Industry insiders said they were informed this could happen if they don’t address alcohol-related harms. A government spokesman denied any plans for minimum pricing. The warning follows a suggestion that Labour may introduce more public health measures, like banning smoking in beer gardens. A senior figure hinted at this policy during an event, urging the industry to act or face government intervention, citing the soft drinks industry’s response to the sugar tax.
