A blow to the Labor government, Senator Steve Fielding sided with the Opposition to oppose the bill. The Fed government is now forced to hand back $300million to RTD companies, and is set to lose $1.6 billion in revenue.
I believe the alcopop tax was nothing more than a tax grab, and would have had no effect on alcohol consumption. Australian has a booze culture, it wouldn't matter how high the price of alcohol was the consumption will remain. What are your thoughts?
