Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he will make an estimate of the cost to policing of alcohol abuse.
This question was answered on 21st December 2023
The Government is committed to reducing alcohol-related crime.
A 2012 calculation estimated that alcohol related harm costs society £21bn a year. However, we have not calculated an estimate of the cost to policing of alcohol abuse.
