I am advised that the other alcohol restriction measures for the Northern Territory came in around the same time. That statistical evidence not being available means I would not want to make any great claims in that regard. There were a range of other measures regarding alcohol management around the same time, so one would think that there was less consumption and, therefore, fewer alcohol fuelled incidents, but I cannot provide you with any evidence that links income management with those sorts of outcomes.
