Since CA on Drugs report was launched in January nearly 200 more people have died from drug-related causes. Oireachtas Committee on Drugs is now being set up, there must be no more delays #drugschangenow End Blame End Shame End Criminalisation
We now have the opportunity to learn from over 20 years experience in Portugal, let's get started! Set up the Oireachtas Committee on Drugs, start work to end Blame, Shame and Criminalisation @aileendub @pkearney505 @GerRayRoe @1Hildegarde
Let's use the learning from over 20 years experience in Portugal when we're doing our next Drugs Strategy - starting point for Oireachtas Committee on Drugs is END BLAME, END SHAME, END CRIMINALISATION @aileendub @pkearney505 @GerRayRoe

We are losing people to drug-related deaths every single day. We need a date now for 1st meeting of the Oireachtas Committee to implement recommendations of CA on Drugs @AodhanORiordain @SeanadCEG @neasa_neasa @PaulMcauliffe @Ginosocialist @1Hildegarde
Blame Shame & Criminalisation need to end now, let's get the Oireachtas Committee on Drugs up and running so it can do its job @neasa_neasa @AodhanORiordain @PaulMcauliffe @SeanadCEG @Ginosocialist @1Hildegarde @myuisce
It's crucial that the Oir Committee on Drugs starts its work without any delay - we cannot forget we continue to lose two people every day to a drug-related death. @neasa_neasa @PaulMcauliffe @SeanadCEG @AodhanORiordain @Ginosocialist @1Hildegarde
Delighted to attend and support today’s #Decrim event in Leinster House with @AodhanORiordain Senator Lynn Ruane @drugscrisis @MerchantsQuayIR @CianOConcubhair & many more
🚨 A cross-party group of TDs, Senators & organisations call for full decriminalisation. No diversion, no mandatory screenings, just the full removal of personal possession from the Drugs Act. It is expected this call will feed into the upcoming Oireachtas committee.
#EndtheHarm #Decrim Repeal Section 3 of the Drugs Act for possession of drugs for personal use……. Drug dealing and possession for sale and supply remain a criminal offence…… Decrim the person, the one who uses drugs, end further trauma of them.
This year, as a community, we will be seriously challenged on how we can place the wellbeing of our citizens at the heart of drug policy in Ireland. We should begin with a key legislative change: Repeal Section 3 of the Misuse of Drugs Act- this is about people, not substances.
Important meeting today discussing the next steps in implementing a key recommendation of the Citizens Assembly on Drug Policy. Decriminalisation. Repeal Section 3 of the 1977 Misuse of Drugs Act. @AodhanORiordain @drugscrisis @CianOConcubhair
Citywide joins call for repeal of Section 3 Misuse of Drugs Act, removing possession as a criminal offence. Govt has approved setting up of Oir Cttee to implement CA recommendations @AodhanORiordain @neasa_neasa @SeanadCEG @myuisce @PaulMcauliffe

11,086 drug-related deaths have been recorded in Ireland from 2004 to 2020, many more have never been recorded. We cannot allow this to continue, we need the Oireachtas Committee for implementing CA recommendations to start its work immediately

The so called health-led approach to drug use started in 2017. The table below shows the number of personal possession charges have massively increased since then. It should be called the 'Garda-led approach to drug use' for accuracy. #DrugReform

Listen to Patrick on why overdose prevention centres/consumption rooms can save lives. The presence of facilities where people can use drugs under medical supervision does not increase crime rates and decreases public drug use (Levengood et al., 2021). Beyond the broader public,…
Do you believes in a health led approach? Do you want to live in a society that doesn't shame, stigmatize and blame people for using drugs? Then we need #Decriminalisation Punitive laws benefit no one-from the person who casually uses cannabis to someone who uses crack daily,…

Task Forces were developed to include effective inclusion and participation of local communities. The state was aware it could not do the job itself and it needed to work in cooperation with local voluntary and community organisations.
The North Inner City Drug and Alcohol Task Force has been taken over by the Department of Health & HSE as part of a 'reconstitution' process with zero transparency. The Minister decided not to inform current task force leadership of this fundamental change to the service.
Drug policy does far more damage to communities that are on the margins of society than the actual drugs themselves, as we bear the end of the citizens' assembly, we must think with an open mind about progressive changes to drug policy here in Ireland. #EndProhibition #CADrugUse
