I was just thinking of something that someone said to me on the doorstep last night. He said someone broke into his car and the person also had an addiction issue on top of that. What this man was describing to me was that for that person the point at which they access services or were offered anything was at the point when they went into the court system. Surely that is a problem. It also drives funding for State services. If we do not have that, we will need to have another system.
