Last year the Minister for Health and Children banned the sale of so-called magic mushrooms, rightly so. I understand a number of other synthetic and herbal drugs are now on sale that are equally if not more dangerous. I ask that a review be carried out of the list of banned substances as a matter of urgency because the last thing we want is to have people die as a result of taking these drugs. It is imperative the Minister would act on this as speedily as she did on the issue of magic mushrooms.
