The continued use of Lariam by the Defence Forces has been continually raised in this House with the Minister and his predecessors, now in opposition. Another question has also been tabled on it this morning. We are trying to find out why the Defence Forces continues to use this drug. Does the Minister know the number of people in the Defence Forces who claim this has triggered in them psychotic or severe depression? Other countries have stopped using this drug.
