The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB
New Zealanders drinking behaviour may be improving, according to new data. This year's Health Survey shows a record low 16% of the adult population reporting hazardous drinking, an almost 3% drop on the year before. NZ Alcohol Beverages Council Executive Director Virginia Nicholls told Mike Hosking that positive community support and education have definitely played a role. She says she thinks there's been a positive cultural change happening for at least the past 20 years. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
