Double bluff on the rocks
David Cameron plans minimum alcohol price in England
However, the European Court of Justice has already stated that: imposing a minimum price is incompatible with the current legal framework (Directive 95/59/EC), since the setting of a minimum price by public authorities inevitably has the effect of limiting the freedom of producers and importers to determine their selling price (see also, Case C-302/00 Commission/France) minimum prices are not necessary, since the health objectives may be attained by increased taxation of tobacco products. (Case C-216/98) Commission/Greece
