The Minister of State mentioned the wide range of risk factors in relation to health, specifically smoking, alcohol use, air quality, obesity, physical inactivity, non-communicable diseases, cancer, and mental and physical health. Is there any data on the health impact of drugs? There are, I am sure, thousands of daily recreational drug users who would say there are no impacts at all. Perhaps that is the case, although I am not sure. Is there data on the impact on health of drug use?
