All the witnesses will have seen the roll-out of defibrillators in this country over the past five years. It is totally new, and my partner is somebody who might need a defibrillator. It has been very interesting to see the roll-out of this expensive technology, which is now accessible on the roadside. Why are we not pursuing a defibrillator-style approach to naloxone? I represent Dublin 1 and we need it there.
