Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Update on Sláintecare: Department of Health

Mr. Greg Straton:

Ms Magahy said most of what needs to be said. The key is working with the alcohol and drugs task forces locally but also creating multi-agency responses. We are aware that alcohol contributes to adverse childhood experiences that can have a significant health impact across the life course. It is definitely about finding the preventive focus before alcohol becomes an issue in the family and home.
