Established in 1982 the Alcohol Education and Research Council is a QUANGO dedicated to research and education on issues related to alcohol. Members of the council come from a range of backgrounds primarily concerned with the treatment of alcohol related problems, although three of the fourteen council members are drawn from the alcohol industry. The Brewers Licensed Retailers Asssociation (formerly the Brewer's Society), The Wines and Spirits Association and The Scotch Whisky Association nominate their chosen representatives.
