I propose to take Questions Nos. 206 to 255, inclusive, together.

The national drug strategy, Reducing Harm, Supporting Recovery, sets out government policy on drug and alcohol use for the period 2017 to 2025. The strategy provides an integrated public health approach to drug and alcohol use, focused on reducing the harms for individuals, families and communities and promoting rehabilitation and recovery. The strategy is a dynamic strategy and contains 50 actions which are to be delivered over the period 2017-2020.

Progress reports are prepared on the activity carried out under the 50 actions contained in the action plan. The 2020 progress report is being finalised and will be released shortly. Progress and Planned Activity reports for the periods 2018 and 2019 are available.

The Deputy will be aware that the Department has commenced a mid-term review of the actions in the strategy, in consultation with stakeholders. The review provides an opportunity to reflect on progress in implementing the strategy to date, progress achieved under the action plan 20217-2020, to identify any new issues that have arisen including the impact of Covid-19 and to consider the development of new actions to address emerging needs and challenges.

The National Oversight Committee gives leadership and direction to support the strategy. The committee has membership from statutory, voluntary and community sector and is chaired by me as Minister for State. The committee has received regular updates on the mid-term review and a draft report was presented to a special meeting of the committee on 18 June for its consideration.

The review when finalised will be brought to Government for approval. Publication of the review will follow soon thereafter. This will include progress on all the actions in the Strategy, including those referenced by the Deputy.

I am committed to working with all stakeholders to ensure that the national drugs strategy is relevant and appropriate to address the societal challenges arising from the use of drugs, especially for children and young people and for those at greatest risk of harm.
