The claim that MUP is that it would Improve health by reducing alcohol harm could save money for the health service and the economy in Wales.
Alcohol-related issues cost the NHS about £159m each year. MUP should therefore directly benefit the taxpayer, since the Welsh NHS is expected to see 1,281 fewer alcohol-related hospital admissions and 66 fewer deaths per year.

How many Hospital admissions related to alcohol have been recorded?
How many alcohol related deaths have there been year on year since 2019?
