Industry arguments against alcohol labelling influencing policy discussions at World Trade Organisation, study suggests

Arguments known to come from the alcohol industry are being put forward by World Trade Organization (WTO) representatives to discourage countries from implementing alcohol health warning labels, according to a qualitative study published in The Lancet Global Health journal. The study also found that a vast majority of WTO representatives' comments on these policies were not explicitly referenced as industry demands, despite featuring arguments commonly raised by industry elsewhere, highlighting the need for greater transparency.
