Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I thank everyone for coming in. We are always trying to use our time in the meeting. We are here to do a body of work. Sometimes for us it can be frustrating revisiting topics such as the impacts of poverty, intergenerational trauma and the concentration of this in disadvantaged communities. The reason it can be frustrating is because many of the people who are here at this committee are...

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: The question was about youth justice and that project.

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: Are there any organisations that are funded by youth justice?

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

How does that get in the way of working with young people? Does it get in...

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Neasa Hourigan: To respond to Mr. D'Arcy's point about decriminalisation, any time we make a suggestion to change the law there is concern on this side of the room about unintended consequences or what it would look like. Professor Comiskey, who appeared before the committee a couple of weeks ago, stated her understanding of the research is that more progressive laws do not necessarily increase use and more...

Committee on Drugs Use: Family and Community: Discussion (24 Oct 2024)

Neasa Hourigan: He just decided to opt out because he could not be treated with dignity.
