I thank Mr. Perth for that. For the broader witnesses, my understanding is that the committee has agreed that public consumption of drugs cannot be allowed to increase, as we have heard from other jurisdictions that this has huge impacts when they decriminalise drugs. How can we control public consumption without further stigmatising the people the witnesses are working with? How can those two things be married?
