I thank Ms Wilson. In his evidence, Mr. Russoniello said peer-reviewed evidence suggested there was no association with an increase in deaths under measure 110. Could he speak a little more about that? Often the proponents of decriminalisation, myself included, hear pushback that we should look at Oregon, in particular Portland. We need to nail that in terms of the peer-reviewed evidence about there being no additional impact. I ask him to speak to that.
