Committee on Drugs Use

A Health-Led Approach: Discussion (Resumed)

9:30 am

Mr. Tony Duffin:

Drug-related intimidation is right across the country. It is very difficult to respond to. People are living in real time in communities where people can make threats and carry those threats out at any given time. It is a very difficult one to respond to. Obviously DRIVE is there from the Garda perspective and the community's perspective but it is a difficult nettle to grasp.
