I have a question for Dr. Ó Concubhair. We heard Deputy Stanton earlier speaking about unintended consequences that happened in British Columbia with the increase in public drug consumption and the impact that was having on the well-being and wider society. Are there any other unintended consequences that we should be concerned about, both positive and negative, if we were to move to decriminalisation in this State?
