Group Against Liquor Advertising

WHAT GALA STANDS FOR ...

GALA is promoting a community free from alcohol advertising and sponsorship ...

We recognise that alcohol is a permanent part of NZ society; we are not prohibitionists.

We examine research and base policy advice on this.

We are seeking a ban on all alcohol advertising.

We would like alcohol sponsorship phased out.

We would like all forms of non-advertising alcohol marketing strictly regulated.

We support health warnings on alcohol containers and standard drinks labelling.
