Funded Activity Summary

This study will quantify the price responsiveness of alcohol consumption by types of alcoholic drinks and patterns of use, and the association of harmful drinking with physical and mental health. These estimates will then be used to analyse the impacts of a range of alcohol tax policies and education programs, and potential flow-on effects on health and other drug use, providing a guide to future alcohol policy.
