well, that reinvestment in treatment services and support services is really welcome, and there is money also going in to support individuals and families who are affected by drug use. there is money going into actually support people with lived and living experience of drug use to actually raise the voice of those people in terms of shaping policy and, hopefully, in shaping services and even the delivery of services, so those things are really positive and to be welcomed. i think we need to have an understanding, as i said, but drug dependence is a long term problem that needs long term solutions. the decriminalisation of drug use for personal use would be a hugely positive step forward, so rather than punishing people for a long term health condition, we would actually help to reduce the stigma and encourage people into treatment and support.
