Committee on Drugs Use

Decriminalisation, Depenalisation, Diversion and Legalisation of Drugs: Discussion (Resumed)

9:30 am

Dr. Denis O'Driscoll:

The Welsh Emerging Drugs and Identification of Novel Substances, WEDINOS, project is probably one of the better examples near to us. People in Wales can send their sample of product to WEDINOS, which will test it and tell them what it contains. To give credit to the HSE, doing that at the festivals here is probably the first foray into that kind of area.
