Committee on Drugs Use
				Decriminalisation, Depenalisation, Diversion and Legalisation of Drugs: Discussion (Resumed)
     Dr. Bernard Kenny:
  Fentanyl is not a major issue in Ireland.  I previously worked in British Columbia and fentanyl was massive over there but we do not see a huge amount of it.  We have our own problems with a synthetic potent opiate here called nitazene.
