The NACD was established in July 2000 to advise the Government on problem drug use in Ireland in relation to consequences, prevalence, prevention, and treatment including rehabilitation, based on its analysis and interpretation of research findings and information available to it. It also provides ‘early warning’ advice to Government. The Committee comprises representation from government departments, academia, community, voluntary and statutory sectors.
Further to Government approval during 2009 of proposals for a new National Drugs Strategy (interim) 2009-2016, the NACD mandate was extended until the end of 2011. NACD’s work programme is agreed annually with the Minister with responsibility for the National Drugs Strategy and the relevant drugs policy unit.
