Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if she will publish an alcohol harm reduction strategy in this Parliament.

Work is already ongoing on a range of other strategies and plans to reduce alcohol harm. The Government takes a wide-ranging approach to addressing alcohol-related harms through commitments in the Prevention Green Paper to increase the availability of no- and low-alcohol alternatives, the establishment of alcohol care teams in the 25% acute hospitals in England with the greatest need through the NHS Long Term Plan, and improvements to the alcohol and drug treatment system through the 10-year Drug Strategy.
