While my Department does not have representation on the Drug and Alcohol Task Forces, membership includes representation from the Education and Training Boards (ETBs). I have made arrangements for Education and Training Boards Ireland (ETBI) to reply directly to the Deputy with information on the taskforces with ETB representation.

Along with other government departments, agencies and stakeholders, my Department is working to support full implementation of the national drug and alcohol strategy, Reducing Harm, Supporting Recovery 2017-2025.
