Rehab News: 'Coordinated' effort to tackle binge drinking

Prime minister Gordon Brown has called for a "coordinated" effort to be made to tackle the problem of binge drinking.

Mr Brown believes that businesses, health workers and the police all have to involve themselves in the crackdown, and he pledged to examine both voluntary and regulatory routes to ensure the operation is successful.

He was speaking at the launch of a Home Office campaign which will target retailers who are selling alcohol to customers who are either underage or who are already drunk.

Particularly focussed on will be pubs, clubs and off-licences found in 1,500 premises in 90 different areas.

According to Mr Brown, the campaign will look at "whether we can build upon the efforts to deal with some of the problems, particularly related to our target groups - that is young people and binge-drinkers - and whether we need to do more voluntarily or in a regulatory way".

Meanwhile, a Downing Street spokesperson said that a "cultural shift" is required if binge drinking is to be eradicated and the number of people seeking alcohol treatment is reduced.
