Petition Details

Drug addiction is on the up rise in northern Ireland. We are already seeing evidence of herion on the streets & many lives have been lost to drugs. We need funding to help educate our youth & also help those already addicted who are losing the battle to drugs. We need more rehabs centres! PLEASE.

Additional Information

21,958 people have died from 2004- 2014.

From 2008-2014 research shows someone dies of drug misuse every 4 days. Let's get help for Northern Ireland now.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

This isn't something that the UK Government or Parliament could take action on. Responsibility for health and social care in Northern Ireland is a devolved issue.

You could raise this issue with your MLA, who represents you in the Northern Ireland Assembly. You can find your MLA here:
