That was a comprehensive response. I did not take the chance to commend the Minister of State on launching the cocaine and crack initiative. There was criticism and pressure about this. I commend her on showing leadership on the issue.
It is welcome that the Department of Health and the HSE will establish a working group to examine such settings as music festivals. I welcome the fact the Minister of State referred to nightclubs as well. I did not refer to them earlier. It is positive the Department is taking nightclubs and festivals together.
