eMJA: Health experts reject industry-backed funding for alcohol research

To the Editor: The federal government is to be applauded for its decision to re-introduce the “alcopops” tax Bill to Parliament and to try to retain the $300 million raised so far for expenditure on services, programs and research to reduce alcohol-related harm in Australia. The alcopops tax was paid by consumers in the form of higher retail prices, which will fall dramatically if the government again fails to pass legislation to retain the tax.
