Mr. Gough mentioned at the very beginning of the session the possibility of legalisation or decriminalising of certain substances or drugs such as cannabis, to allow a small amount for personal use. This kind of stuff has been around for a while. He brought up this issue earlier on. I would like him to revisit that and to hear his views on it. Perhaps others might like to come in on this also. The drugs scene is integral to our discussion today.
