Devon and Cornwall's police and crime commissioner is meeting representatives of major supermarket chains today.. to discuss sales of cheap alcohol and its link to anti-social behaviour and violence.
Research carried out in the force area has confirmed a shift in drinking patterns, with many people 'pre-loading' at home before going to bars and clubs.
Tony Hogg says he won't be lecturing the retailers, but hopes they'll play their part in developing a joined-up approach to the problem of alcohol-related crime.
