Nicola Roxon (Gellibrand, Australian Labor Party, Minister for Health and Ageing) Share this | Hansard source

I will not sit here in the parliament and be verballed by a shadow minister who sat on this side of the House for 11 years and was part of a government that did nothing about this problem—not a single thing. The shadow minister has asked for one piece of evidence, and that piece of evidence is absolutely plain as day; he just does not want to use it. That piece of evidence shows that alcopop sales have decreased by more than a third—34.6 per cent—relative to before this measure was introduced in April last year. You asked for one piece of evidence. That is one clear, incontestable piece of evidence.
