All new advertising for low-alcoholic drinks must bear the compulsory logo "Not 16? Not a drop". The Advertising Code for Alcoholic Beverages has been adjusted. The old slogan "alcohol under 16, course not" is now history. The new logo will be seen on TV and in the cinema in the left corner during 5 seconds. All details about the font and the size of the compulsory slogan in print are being described in the new text of Article 31. The new ruling is applicable as per 5 March 2010 for all newly created advertising items. On television and in cinemas you may find the old logo until 5 June 2010. In print items the old slogan will be allowed until 5 September 2010. The new ruling aims to translate the legal standard (no alcohol under 16) into a social standard. The new slogan with accompanying logo will be used in alcohol advertisements, cafeterias, supermarkets etc. The new slogan will hopefully support parents to set the boundaries for children under 16.
