a right to statutory home care is core to the Sláintecare plan.

it was promised in 2017 but has not been delivered, adding that picking and choosing what parts of Sláintecare to implement is not acceptable.

Why is that, minister? Because they know this will sell more of the main alcohol product.

They are using the same branding, the same colors, it is almost identical advertising to their full strength products.

They are pumping money into 00 advertising to circumvent your law, to get around it, to advertise in areas where there are children, and they are openly saying this.

The evidence shows us that 00 alcohol products make up 1% of the total alcohol market, yet they're spending 25% of their outdoor alcohol budget on 00 products.

It's really clear to the dogs in the street that the alcohol industry is exploiting the law and that there's a clear loophole in the law.
