>Under the scheme, those possessing small amounts of drugs will still be breaking the law and are liable to stop and search from gardaí.
>The only that changes is that everybody found with any illegal drug is diverted to HSE addiction services in order to evade sanctions.
The HSE addiction services are about to be overwhelmed, so real addicts can’t get the treatment they need and deserve.
Is this one of those times where they make a deliberate balls of a thing to get it over the line and then either amend it to make more of a balls of it or amend it to something that functions with lots of blind eyes and a couple of their buddies making a fortune?
So the plan is to continue funding the cartels but also waste HSE resources. Galaxy brain stuff.
This is so fucken idiotic. I work in addiction and can’t imagine the reasoning going into this model.
So typical of the FFG completely fucken removed from reality mindset.
To everyone reading this who agrees this is a very stupid idea on behalf of the HSE, please take 2 minutes out of your day to sign the below petition before it becomes a reality:
Facepalms* just fucking legalise it lads our health service is already overwhelmed we don’t need every lad caught with a 25 bag being pushed into rehab ….
