Press Release - Taking booze away won’t reduce underage drinking, says drug and alcohol charity’6th February 2008

It welcomes the ‘stepping up’ of efforts to tackle under-age drinking, but says this approach must be backed up with support for young people and parents to tackle problems with alcohol.
