tabling member printed	Baroness Hayter of Kentish Town
uin	HL3155
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/11/2021 answer text <p>The Government’s evidence review on the public health burden of alcohol in 2016 found evidence that exposure to alcohol marketing can increase the risk that children will start to drink alcohol, or if they already drink, can increase the risk that they will consume greater quantities. There is evidence to show exposure to alcohol advertising can induce physiological cravings to drink, but not necessarily relapse, among ex-dependent drinkers. However, this was from a single study and more research is needed to fully understand the impact. We continue to monitor the emerging evidence in this area.</p> answering member printed Lord Kamall question first answered 02/11/2021 12:39:24 answering member 4909 label Biography information for Lord Kamall
