This year, the budget for community-based initiatives in the Local and Regional Drugs Task Force areas, including funding for new cocaine and rehabilitation measures introduced during the year, will come to nearly €34.8m. Funding for 2009 is approximately €34.6m, which is a minor reduction of 0.5% on the 2008 allocation from my Department.
