A report into the health of teenagers in the area has raised concern, it has been reported.
The level of admissions to hospital for teenage alcohol abuse in the Yorkshire and Humber region has risen by 19 per cent since 2000, according to a new report.
Research by the Conservative party in the area has revealed an increase in both drug and alcohol abuse, in addition to sexually transmitted infections, according to the Goole Courier.
Ministers have said this reflects a society in which young people are "condemned to a life of drug and alcohol addiction and ill-health" even before they leave school.
David Davis, MP for Haltemprice and Howden, told the publication: "It's extraordinary that against the back drop of these figures the government have relaxed liquor licensing laws meaning that young people can get hold of cheap drink more easily than ever before."
The Labour party commented the government has increased services for young people and argued it is difficult to tell if the figures show more people are seeking help for their problems or the incidence of problems is on the rise.
In other news, figures from the National Treatment Agency show more young people aged between 16 and 17 are getting treatment for drug addiction in England than two years ago.
