Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
National Drugs Strategy: Minister of State at the Department of Health
Frank Feighan (Sligo-Leitrim, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
I am following the national drugs strategy, Reducing Harm, Supporting Recovery. There is discussion regarding a citizens' assembly on drug use, in effect. At present, we are following the Reducing Harm, Supporting Recover booklet in the Department until there is a change of direction. I am not sure there will be because legalising drugs would inevitably normalise drug use. That is just my opinion, but I am following the national drugs strategy. As I said, that is the roadmap we are using in the Department. What was the Senator's other issue?
