EFF has formally introduced its Liquor Amendment Bill to Parliament

# The EFF says it has formally introduced a Private Member’s Bill in the National Assembly to ban alcohol advertising. The Liquor Amendment Bill seeks to amend the Liquor Act of 2003. In addition to a ban on advertising, the bill aims to prevent the use of brand elements, company names, or sponsorships linked to liquor at organised events. The EFF has urged National Assembly Speaker Thoko Didiza to swiftly refer the bill to the portfolio committee on Trade, Industry and Competition for processing.
