A public consultation was hosted by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland on the regulations to be made on the labelling and advertising of alcohol products under the Public Health (Alcohol) Act. Almost 300 submissions were received by the FSAI and on foot of these a Report was submitted to my Department.

The results of the consultation are forming part of the considerations in the development of the draft regulations. Prior to being finalised those draft regulations will require notification to the European Commission for assessment.
