Chief Superintendent Frances Clerkin said that if something can be done to assist drug users leading difficult lives “we should do it”.

The divisional officer for Dublin South Central was speaking at a packed seminar to discuss the pros and cons of supervised injecting centres, organised by Merchants Quay Ireland and the Ana Liffey Drug Project.
