They just won't be arrested if it's found on them, this is to save police time, they're not going to miraculously morph into social workers.

Again I disagree, heroin addiction is becoming a big problem in Dublin especially and for once (lol) I do believe that the motives are actually genuine, that they want to try a different way to try and tackle the growing problem. What they're doing now, just throwing them into a cell for the night or whatever clearly isn't working. If nothing else atleast these injection rooms will be safer for the addict and it takes them off the streets while they're doing it, will reduce the risk of HIV spreading if they supply needles and a place to dispose of used needles too
