National Drugs Strategy 2001-2008: Statements.

 

The ongoing debate centred on who is at risk is also concerned with whether funding should be directed solely at those who are already trapped or if it should also apply to those who are in danger. It should be directed at both aspects and should take account of local circumstances. The fund was meant to target specific areas where the problem was most acute. That is why a separate fund was created rather than taking it from the overall general capital programme. Some very good work has been done and I have visited the results in various constituencies.
