Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I acknowledge that the government has begun its extensive television advertising campaign. Is the minister aware that research shows that young people are concerned about their friends’ welfare but need help to raise difficult topics with them and that health information labels on alcohol products would help friends raise this difficult topic? So I ask: when will the government put health labels on alcohol products, with effective key messages that back up the TV campaign, warning of the damage that excessive alcohol consumption can cause?
