In 2006 the Institute of Alcohol Studies published a report 'Alcohol in Europe: a public health perspective', the so-called ‘Anderson’ Report. 

The report, commissioned to inform the EU's alcohol strategy, claimed that alcohol was responsible for 7.4% of ill-health and early death in the EU, behind only tobacco and high blood pressure and estimates that alcohol cost Europe €125 billion each year.

The WSTA has produced a summary paper, which is available here.
