With regard to the common helpline that was initiated at the time, is there any information on the geographical breakdown of the 10,000 hits on that line? Is there a breakdown of the callers? Were they users, parents, teachers or community activists? Can the Minister of State flesh out for us the interest people have in contacting the HSE in this regard.

Some time ago the death of a person following the use of drugs was very much in the news. At the time, many people considered the death was related to the use of alcohol with cocaine and co-ethylene. This drug mix was highlighted as a toxic development when used with alcohol. Has any further information been brought forward with regard to this or to the helpline?
