Macca and Paul talk to Chris Christoforou CEO, Victorian Alcohol & Drug Association (VAADA), as Premier Jacinta Allan has announced that the second safe Injecting room has been abandoned
Premier Jacinta Allan has declared Victoria will never get a second injecting room under her leadership, after the government failed to identify a CBD location that would not hurt the city’s shopping strips and stigmatise vulnerable drug users.
Allan abandoned the four-year-old policy on Tuesday, against the recommendations of former police commissioner Ken Lay’s report, which the government requested in 2020 when it promised to open a safe injecting room in the CBD. The government remains committed to the existing North Richmond facility, which first opened as a trial in 2018.
