On July 22nd, 2014 at a meeting of the Committee on agriculture, land relations and forest management the project about production and turnover of alcohol products was discussed. Deputies on relevant Legislative Assembly approved a bill prohibiting the sale of energy drinks, containing alcohol on the territory of Nizhniy Novgorod region, as it adversely affects the health of citizens, especially youth. If the regional Parliament passes the law in two readings at the next legislative session, beginning from January 1st, 2015 retail sale of these drinks will be banned. Energy spirits which can stimulate the central nervous system of a person, do not have a strong alcoholic taste. Quite the contrary, drinking such products young people have an association with the usual soft drinks, and this leads to a strong dependence. Before the new year comes entrepreneurs have time to prepare to new changes. It is not known what the punishment will be imposed for violators of the law. |
