FED:Enforce booze laws in Alice: Abbott

TONY ABBOTT says existing alcohol restrictions in central Australia should be enforced
before even tougher measures to curb drinking among indigenous people are considered.

The opposition leader is in Alice Springs as part of his push for a fresh intervention
in the Northern Territory.

He has public drinking and truancy in his sights .. telling ABC radio if parents can't
get their kids to school they should be fined .. just like they would be in Sydney or
Melbourne.
