Limerick East): The Eastern Health Board, which is responsible for the provision of drug prevention services, proposes to develop community drug services in the Dún Laoghaire area in 1996. This will enhance the limited service already provided in the area through two existing addiction counsellors. These services will be provided to people who reside in the Dún Laoghaire area only.
It is the absolute intention of the Eastern Health Board to consult fully with local political and community representatives regarding the need for services in the area and regarding how such services may best be provided. At all stages in this process the interests of the community as a whole will be carefully considered.
