Drug rehab plan shelved as Donohoe intervenes
Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe has intervened to prevent the setting up of a service for recovering drug addicts in his constituency.
The intervention came after he was told by local residents there were plans to establish a methadone clinic in two houses on Botanic Road in Glasnevin, in Mr Donohoe’s Dublin Central constituency. The rumour was inaccurate as the service included medical facilities but no provision for dispensing methadone.
