The Scottish Parliament has recently approved a 30% increase in the minimum unit price of alcohol, raising it from 50p to 65p, set to take effect in September. This adjustment, the first since Scotland introduced the minimum unit pricing in 2018, aims to counteract inflation and reduce alcohol addiction rates. The price change will notably raise the cost of a bottle of whisky from £14 to £18.20. While some independent retailers support the government's health initiative, others, including the president of the Federation of Independent Retailers in Scotland, criticize the move as ineffective and a potential cause for increased shoplifting and cross-border shopping, which could undermine the intended public health benefits.
