It is important that certain witnesses have outlined they see recovery differently from most. People making the decision that they want change is the start of the recovery. If there are no signs of somebody trying to make that choice, that is a big issue in County Clare. I cannot get shelter for them, even emergency accommodation. According to the council, there is a requirement that they be actively trying to enter recovery. Are the witnesses also seeing that without the decision to change, there is no access to even shelter?
