The Hunter Street Health Centre in Glasgow, the UK's first 'drugs consumption room,' received permission today. Users of the pilot program will be able to use their own medications under the guidance of specially trained health professionals. Earlier this month, however, American officials issued an eloquent appeal to the Scottish Government not to make the same mistake in 2021. In an attempt to'reduce stigma' and save lives, town hall chiefs in Portland, Oregon, decriminalized drugs. However, they were forced to reinstate the drug ban earlier this month due to rising rises in overdoses, deaths, and property crime. Scottish heroin users are more likely to be dependent on opium and benzodiazepines, while in Portland there is a prescription opioid crisis. Rene Gonzalez, the Portland Commissioner of Public Safety, also said there were similarities between the two regions. The amount of human suffering is just brutal,' he said. It's really sad. Both Portland and Scotland have many values in common, but the addictive qualities of these drugs are so strong that it overwhelms your systems.'

Hunter Street Health Centre, located in Glasgow's east end, will be the UK's first sanctioned 'drugs consumption room' and will be confirmed by the Scottish Parliament today.

In 2022, there were 1,051 deaths in Scotland as a result of heroin use, down 279 percent from the previous year, but there were still 2.7 times the rate south of the border and Europe's highest rate. Lord Advocate Dorothy Bain KC declared earlier this month that it would not be 'in the public interest' to sue people using such a facility, effectively ending the scheme.
