Availability of new psychoactive substances
• The number of head shops in Ireland has been decreasing significantly on foot of actions taken by the Government to restrict and control new psychoactive substances.
• The number of online retailers is vast. Many of these retailers appear to deliver to Ireland.
• At the time of the review, fewer people appeared to be purchasing new psychoactive substances via the internet relative to their UK counterparts.
