英国或放弃为酒精饮料制定最低价的政策

    食品伙伴网讯  据外媒报道，为了让民众适量饮酒、减少酗酒事件，英国政府计划在英格兰和威尔士推出"酒精最低单位价"（minimum pricing of alcohol）的政策。

    然而英国执政联盟保守党内部对是否应该设定酒精饮料最低单位价争执不休，即使是内阁部长们也意见不一。

    据报道，尽管首相卡梅伦（David Cameron）支持"酒精最低单位价格"的政策，但是包括内政大臣特里萨·梅（Theresa May）、教育大臣高夫（Michael Gove）等重量级内阁成员在内的保守党大员均反对这一政策。

    部分原文报道如下：

    David Cameron has pledged to stop cheap alcohol being sold in supermarkets but has failed to commit to a minimum unit pricing policy.

    The prime minister had been urged to end speculation that the government was poised to abandon plans for a minimum unit price for alcohol.

    Cameron told MPs at prime minister's questions in the House of Commons that the government was still examining the results of a consultation on the policy amid mounting speculation that the move he personally championed would be abandoned.

    A base price of 45p per unit in England and Wales has been suggested but a number of cabinet ministers, including the home secretary, Theresa May, have made clear they harbour doubts.
