North Richmond medically supervised injecting room
Bev McARTHUR (Western Victoria) (10:05): I commend also Yarra city councillor and mayor Stephen Jolly for backing the relocation of the North Richmond injecting room. These facilities attract antisocial behaviour, and it is unacceptable to place one beside a primary school and family homes. The government should focus on prevention and rehabilitation, not enabling drug use.
