Countries such as Ireland that plan to introduce drug consumption rooms are obliged to ensure they comply with international drug laws, the world’s narcotics watchdog has warned.
The International Narcotics Control Board (INCB) stopped short of declaring that such facilities were illegal, but stated that they must comply with conditions it sets down.
The Government last month approved legislation allowing for establishment of medically supervised injecting facilities, a form of drug consumption room.
The INCB said “certain conditions must be fulfilled” if the rooms are to be consistent with international drug conventions.
