The Deputy's question relates to the management and delivery of health and personal social services, which includes the development and implementation of drug awareness initiatives and campaigns. These are now the responsibility of the Health Service Executive which was established under the Health Act 2004. Accordingly, my Department has requested the parliamentary affairs division of the executive to arrange to have this matter investigated and to have a reply issued directly to the Deputy.
