There is a causal link between alcohol intoxication and injury in assault, mediated by individual, contextual and cultural factors. Harm reduction can be achieved through practical measures like plastic glasses and bottles in licensed premises, controlling drinks prices and targeted policing organized on the basis of police and accident and emergency data.
