EU alcohol strategy

Question for written answer E-002411-18
to the Commission
Rule 130
Monika Beňová (S&D)

The European Parliament called for a common EU strategy on alcohol on 29 April 2015, given that there is currently no comprehensive EU strategy in this field. The Commissioner for Health and Food Safety declared at the EPSCO meeting in Tallinn on 21 July 2017 that the goal was to reduce alcohol-related harm by 10% by 2020. This is the target set by the WHO global action plan.

1. Will the Commission propose an alcohol strategy for the EU and by the EU in the coming months?

2. Does the Commission consider that there is a need for a common EU-wide alcohol strategy?
