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

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

Gino Kenny: You are all right. I will let you in during the next part. Senator Ruane probably has a few questions. It sounds like a great initiative.

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

Louise O'Reilly: I thank the witnesses. I am substituting for my colleague an Teachta Thomas Gould. My first question, and this will probably will not surprise Mr. Perth, is for Connect 4. I was able to watch a bit on screen but also read the submissions. I was struck when the perception of self-sabotage of the area was spoken about. Perhaps Mr. Perth could talk about how young people's perception of...

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

Louise O'Reilly: I thank Mr. Perth for that. For the broader witnesses, my understanding is that the committee has agreed that public consumption of drugs cannot be allowed to increase, as we have heard from other jurisdictions that this has huge impacts when they decriminalise drugs. How can we control public consumption without further stigmatising the people the witnesses are working with? How can those...

Louise O'Reilly: I agree.

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

Louise O'Reilly: It would be overwhelmed.

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

Louise O'Reilly: Specifically regarding public consumption and the way that can be managed, my understanding is the committee had agreed that an increase in public consumption should not necessarily be a by-product. How can that be done without further stigmatisation, however? We spoke about stigma and trauma. How can that be done without heaping further stigma on communities that do not need it and cannot...

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: Anyone else? We have heard stories about people finding it difficult to get a GP specifically.

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.

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

Neasa Hourigan: I presume the outcome of that is, again, a removal of yourself from the situation or a failure to engage when you probably need it most.

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

Neasa Hourigan: Am I right in thinking, just having sat on the task force a few times, that one of the answers to this is peer support, namely, that people would have a health advocate to sit with them and bring them back? In Mr. McCarthy's experience, is that something that works?

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

Neasa Hourigan: There are not enough people.

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

Neasa Hourigan: It is that dual diagnosis thing that they just will not do it.

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

Neasa Hourigan: Am I right in thinking that if people go in somewhere with bipolar or whatever it might be to ask for treatment, they will often be told they need to get clean first?
