This morning the President signed the Public Health (Alcohol) Bill and it has accordingly become law. In time, this legislation will saves lives and hopefully change our nation’s harmful relationship with alcohol, reduce consumption and lessen alcohol harms. pic.twitter.com/XCt6zTLYoO— AlcoholActionIreland (@AlcoholIreland) 17 Deireadh Fómhair 2018

The Public Health (Alcohol) Act 2018 was signed into law today - 17th October 2018
Go hiontach! And signed into law on The International Day for the Eradication of Poverty which is apt! I've been covering the passage of the bill through the Irish Oireachtas (Houses of Parliament) for a few years and even years before that I was aware of the alcohol problem in Ireland so I am delighted that the PHAB has come in!
