SUPER STRENGTH LAGERS

Motion Text
That this House recognises the serious damage to health and premature deaths caused by consumption of super strength lagers containing 9 per cent. alcohol; notes that they encourage excess consumption since each 500ml can contains 4.5 units of alcohol which is more than the Government's recommended daily alcohol limit; and calls on the Government to curb their sale by taxing super strength lagers at a higher rate, thus saving the lives and improving the health of many homeless people with alcohol addiction problems.
