Should serious drug addicts be given the possibility of satisfying their addiction in government-regulated shooting galleries? Or would they simply exacerbate the very problem that it sees to address? That is the question being asked in France ever since the French health minister announced her intentions of venturing into talks with local city mayors with view to try the system already used by a number of other countries.

 

Our guests are:
  • Thomas Dusouchet, Doctor of Pharmacy, GAIA Harm Reduction Programme
  • Fabrice Olivet, Director, Association for the Safety of Drug Users (ASUD)
  • Jacques Myard, French MP
