Minimum unit pricing in the Northern Territory

We call on the Northern Territory Government to stop the clock on the legislation to abolish minimum unit pricing (MUP). Removal of MUP will increase social, financial and other costs for bystanders of drinkers. The economic cost of harm from others’ drinking was $20 billion in Australia in 2016, including absences from work.
Minimum Unit Pricing must remain in place to reduce social, health and economic costs for all. Read some of the robust evidence from The Lancet supporting it.
