Attitudes and behaviours on supplying alcohol to under 18s

Studies show that parental social supply is more likely to contribute to increased alcohol use, and increased risk of alcohol-related harm later in life. Despite this, New Zealand adults reported to have socially suppled alcohol to under 18-year-olds in the last year.

Attitudes and behaviours on supplying alcohol to under 18s: Qualitative research from the 2019/20 Alcohol Use in New Zealand survey (AUiNZ) is a report that aims to gain insight into adults’ attitudes around why people may supply alcohol, or think it is a good idea to. It uses qualitative data from the 2019/20 Alcohol Use in New Zealand Survey (AUiNZ).

This report is complementary to the accompanying quantitative report, Social supply of alcohol to under 18s: Quantitative research from the 2019/20 Alcohol Use in New Zealand survey (AUiNZ).
