I don't think it has actually been passed, just suggested.
Not really surprised as my local concil have been going on about this for years and had local licencing laws changed so that cheap drinks and 2 4 1 offers are a thing of the past. I can see their point to be honest, if you look at the statistics of alcohol related violence and health problems due to alcohol, they have increased. Do I think it'll make a difference.....NO.
