No assessment has been made. NHS Scotland publishes annual reports on the impact of the Scottish Government\u2019s alcohol strategy, a core element of which is minimum unit pricing. However, the Scottish Government will not publish its statutory report on the impact of minimum unit pricing (MUP) until five years post-implementation of the legislation, in 2023. The Government shall monitor the impact of MUP as robust evidence emerges.<\/p>
