| Abstract: | Ireland has regulated for all packaged alcohol products to include a health warning that states that 'there is a link between alcohol and fatal cancers'. This warning is being opposed in the World Trade Organization by 12 member states who are raising that the warning is an unnecessary barrier to trade. The World Health Organization is supporting Ireland. Countries should not oppose Ireland's warning which is defensible from legal and public health perspectives. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
