This report updates the drinking behaviours report produced for ALAC covering the 2005-06 and 2006-07 periods.
Whereas the reports for these previous years are based on four quarterly monitors, this report is based on only three quarterly monitors (conducted in September 2007, December 2007 and March 2008) because of a change in the monitoring programme.
Where appropriate, the 2007-08 results have been compared to those for 2005-06 and 2006-07. Differences are only reported if they are statistically significant (at the 95 percent confidence level).
